Persistent swallowing difficulty, also known as dysphagia, is one of the most significant, early barriers to stroke recovery. It can lead to serious clinical complications, including an 8x higher risk of mortality at 3 months. (1/2)

Great to see @BBCNews covering this important issue for people with a stammer it would be good to link in with @RCSLT / communication-access.co.uk to raise awareness and support people with communication needs as there is a communication access symbol that could be used universally
