You may notice stammering at the start of words or phrases.
This can be frustrating or tiring for the person who stammers, but as listeners, we can make a huge difference.
The mics are hot, the conversations are rolling, and something big is on the way🔥
The podcast team are working behind the scenes, and it is almost time to share.
Keep an eye out and your ears peeled for the new podcast dropping soon!🎧
It’s Developmental Language Disorder Day! 💛
DLD is more common than autism, yet still widely unknown.
DLD is a lifelong neurodevelopmental condition that makes understanding and using spoken language more difficult.
Today, we’re spreading awareness and supporting this year’s theme: Together for DLD. Let’s build a better world for people with DLD together!

Happy Allied Health Professions Day!
It takes a team to care for one.
Today we are celebrating the NHS' brilliant AHP, from therapists and paramedics to radiographers, physios, SLTs and more. Thank you for your dedication, compassion and collaboration when supporting patients.

We're kicking off October with ADHD AND AAC awareness!
This month focuses on celebrating and including neurodiversity and all forms of communication.
Everyone should be given the opportunity to express themselves.
As Speech-Language Therapists, we know that communication isn't one-size-fits-all so we often are advocates for inclusive practices.
Let’s make space for every voice and every mode of expression.

Happy International Day of Sign Languages! 🤟
Today is the 75th anniversary of the World Federation of the Deaf (WFD). This year’s theme, “Declaring Deaf People’s Human Rights,” reminds us that sign languages are fully realised languages used by over 70 million deaf people.
Today and every day, we stand with the Deaf community. Communication is a human right.
Let's build a more inclusive, accessible world for everyone! 🌍
