Thank you for sitting and sharing with me today, @Diverslt. So many wonderful discussions being had with pediatric SLTs! I'm still looking for SLT participants who may have black or brown children on their caseload! Send me a dm!
Just met with the lovely #slt2b @Twisted_Kimmy to support with her dissertation project. It is great to see so many more #diverse dissertation topics in SLT.
If you are a paediatric #SLT working in or around the London area, please support.

The NHS workforce is more diverse than ever.
The NHS equality, diversity and inclusion improvement plan focuses on how the NHS can support and benefit from this workforce – attracting talent, retaining staff and ensuring greater diversity in leadership. england.nhs.uk/long-read/nhs…
ALT Quote card of Amanda Pritchard, NHS Chief Executive reads: 'Ensuring our staff work in an environment where they feel they belong, and can safely raise concerns, ask questions and admit mistakes, is essential for staff morale – which, in turn, leads to improved patient outcomes.'

We need to recognise communities as sources of knowledge production, not spaces of data extraction.
