The VdTMoCA Foundation (UK) is a Community Interest Company, working as a not-for-profit organisation, for the benefit of the occupational therapy community.

We are a small group of occupational therapists who work on a voluntary basis, so we need you to support us, so we can support you. Membership is just £15 a year and helps us to publish books, deliver free study days to our members, provide you with access to a large amount of resources and available literature. We also offer support and create networking opportunities for those new to the model and services in the process of embedding the model in to clinical practice.

Please support us in becoming a member so we can continue to develop and grow the VdTMoCA throughout the UK.

The Vona du Toit Model of Creative Ability (VdTMoCA) is an occupational therapy practice model originating from South Africa. The model as presented by Van der Reyden et al (2019), is founded upon the theory of creative ability developed by Vona du Toit (occupational therapist) in the 1960s and early 1970s. The term ‘creative’ does not refer to artistic flair but to one’s ability to bring into existence something that did not exist before – one’s ability to bring about change within oneself and in one’s world.
