Im with pudding bowl guy, I worked in a hospital after graduating (following the advice of a guy in private practice when I was a student) and I have always fallen back on the experience gained in the public system. There are massive opportunities for all aspects of PT, including sports and MSK PT as you can see orthopedic conditions that will blow your mind. Its valuable experience that it fantastic for travel as well, as most UK jobs need 2-3 years hospital experience or 5 year post private (on average).

When you are new out, you need support and anyone that says they dont is either kidding themselves or has their head in the sand. In larger hospitals there is a wealth of experience and the support you can get from the other medical fields is amazing. I would recommend it all the way.
