Well if you’re empathetic and like caring deeply for people, you can go for Nursing. If you’re curious about technology and enjoy problem-solving, choose Radiography and lastly if you’re interested in movement, recovery, and active treatment, choose Physiotherapy.

Watch some 'A day in the life of a ....' videos online (the ones produced by NHS trusts) and then try to get a day of shadowing experience for each discipline. Book some uni open days for each subject and talk to staff and students. This will help you work out which role would suit you the best.
