Beverley Maw Occupational Therapy (BMOT)
Thank you for visiting BMOT (Beverley Maw Occupational Therapy, pronounced BeeMott) — an independent, specialist therapy service founded after more than 25 years of NHS experience across adult and paediatric settings. Initially set up as an individual OT in the private world, we have organically grown through connection and values.
BMOT was created to deliver high-quality, outcome-focused therapy without the constraints of statutory services. This allows us to work flexibly, respond quickly, and provide truly person-centred, holistic intervention— supporting not only functional ability, but confidence, emotional wellbeing, family life, and long-term independence.
We operate as a multi-disciplinary team (MDT), comprising Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists, Speech & Language Therapists (SALT), and Therapy Assistants. By working collaboratively, we draw on specialist expertise, share clinical reasoning, and ensure robust, well-rounded recommendations. We actively consult within the team on complex cases, valuing reflective practice, peer support, and continuous professional development.
I’m open about my diagnosis of ADHD, which brings energy, creativity, innovation, and a strong drive to ensure our work remains dynamic, thoughtful, and effective. Our team includes neurodivergent clinicians, and autism is part of my family’s lived experience — meaning our empathy is grounded in real-world understanding, lived experience, and resilience, alongside strong clinical expertise. Everyone is valued and accepted.
We support adults and children with lifelong or acquired conditions, including neurological injury, disability, developmental differences, and complex needs. Families value our warmth, honesty, and reliability; solicitors and case managers value our clear reporting, appropriate costing, clinical reasoning, and practical, outcome-driven recommendations.
Our clinicians also contribute to the BMOT Foundation, our charitable arm, where we extend our scope of practice to support individuals who need therapy, case management, support to access daily occupations (including social activities)or equipment, but are unable to access statutory or funded services. This reflects our commitment to equity, advocacy, and early intervention, ensuring vulnerable people or family’s do not go without essential support due to system limitations or funding barriers.
BMOT is not about ticking boxes or chasing recognition — it’s about showing up, being accountable, and doing work that genuinely focuses on quality of life. With fewer external limitations, we can go above and beyond, advocating strongly for our clients, adapting environments, providing advice, building functional skills, and ensuring the right support is in place.
Above all, we care deeply about helping people live lives that feel safer, more independent, meaningful, and enjoyable— delivering therapy that is professional, evidence-based, and with

BMOT Foundation Charity
The BMOT Foundation was established in 2024 as the charitable arm of BMOT, created from a simple but powerful idea: that everyone deserves the chance to live a meaningful life, no matter their health, ability, or circumstances. Beverley has been involved with charitable work for many years, so what better step that create the Foundation.
As Occupational Therapists, we know that the right support at the right time can change the course of someone’s life. Yet too often, access to equipment, therapy, or meaningful opportunities is delayed or denied due to system constraints or funding gaps. The BMOT Foundation was developed to bridge that gap.
Our mission is to respond quickly and compassionately — funding essential items, services or support that can’t wait. Whether it’s covering the cost of short-term wheelchair hire while waiting on NHS approval, providing adapted play equipment for a child with disabilities, or supporting a therapeutic opportunity that promotes well-being — the Foundation exists to make sure real needs are met, without unnecessary delay.
At its , the BMOT Foundation is about people. It’s about values that matter: dignity, inclusion, real-life solutions, and doing what’s right — not just what’s possible.
Real therapy. Real meaning. Real change.
