We are aware that some registrants have received automated calls regarding supposed HCPC investigations, and been asked to contact a specified number.
We can confirm that this is vishing scam and that we don't contact registrants in this way!

Great refresher last week on Instrumental assessments for our team thanks to Caroline & @ellieroche1 🤓✍️ Nice to reflect on referrals we have made, why we refer for Instrumental assessments and how to improve our referrals👏 #mySLTday @RCSLT @FEESVFCEN

Groupthink makes us take terrible decisions. When psychological safety is low & people fear disapproval from leaders, groupthink gets worse. It's our job as leaders to encourage diversity of thought & safety for everyone to contribute: sketchplanations.com/groupth… By @sketchplanator

A fantastic suite of short videos for Reception and Year 1 teachers (and others....) Free, easy to access, and full of invaluable information about SLCN...
The #englishhubs Training Centre is a DfE funded project providing support to hub leads and literacy specialists in 32 hub schools. We have produced some films to help reception and Yr1 teachers identify speech, language and communication needs (#SLCN)

Really practical findings when considering whether virtual or f2f appointments are needed. Great work @awgilbert11
@ClinAcSLT @RCSLTResearch
Lots of interest from our paper, published last week. bmjopen.bmj.com/content/11/2…
These findings can be readily applied to clinical practice.
Within the manuscript (and supplementary material) we suggest some sensitising questions to support preference identification.
