New TV ad from @TheStrokeAssoc capturing family reactions after a stroke. Made me tear up this morning. Motivating to do more for stroke survivors. Grateful again to the @TheStrokeAssoc funding my PhD in #aphasia
Stroke Association@TheStrokeAssoc1 Oct 2024
Every day in the UK, over 240 people wake up after a stroke. Our new TV advert captures the life-changing impact a stroke can have on anyone, at any age, including children. Our charity is here to help you find your strength through recovery, no matter how long it takes.

Wonderful reminder from @includeorg that “laws are important- but can only be effective if the people know about those particular laws” - we need more tools to support people in their decision-making! @MCAsupporttool @sophiecborrett @oliviatheSLT @talkaboutsam

I am thrilled to receive a Rising Star Award from the @ShawTrust. However, it does focus the mind on how inaccessible the world still is, and there is still lots of work to do. Congratulations to all those who have also been recognised today. #disabilitypower100

Seeing peoples' lives transform daily is why I love being a speech and language therapist. I wouldn't want to do anything else. To be recognised by the @RCSLT with a Giving Voice Award for doing something I love makes it even more special 😊 @mrjoshmcdonagh @ElisabethSLT

We’ve just had our last Talkabout communication cafe of 2020, it was festive and fabulous. Seeing so many happy faces through the year, has made me so excited for 2021. A big thank you to Nestle for helping us help as many people with communication difficulties as possible.
