PHYSIOTHERAPISTS are to stage their biggest strike to date after accusing the government of refusing to negotiate with health unions over NHS pay.

The Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) said 4,500 of its members at 56 trusts in England will strike on Wednesday March 22, describing it as a significant escalation of the dispute.

It follows two strikes in January and February in which physiotherapy staff at 30 and 33 trusts respectively walked out.
