Amazing day yesterday at the London AAC CEN. Catching up with old friends & new. Listening about GLP & AAC (Becky Fry), MDT working (Ruth Williams & Charlie Danger), Modelling through Puppets (Dan Cooper) then a Talking Mats resource for to consider EDI (Nikky Steiner & Lucia).
I too have had this happen more than once! 'Your too young to be disabled' they said to which I responded 'can you tell my body that, and the doctor that mistook my spine mri for that a much much older person'.

๐ TAKEOVER DAY 2
Iโve been using biozoon with a few of my patients recently. Biozoon is a battery operated device that makes any thin drink into bubbles, which can then be consumed safely! ๐ซง
1/2 Spent @talkingWhitSLTs professionals day yesterday trying to work out where I knew faces from! Only to wake early this morning with an 'oh thats x' how could I forget!! So just want to make a shout out that if I looked at you inquisitively, did not remember your name or asked
@carlmyhill@A11yLondon That's fine if the documents are then made accessible! There are many places working on this basis that keep saying that document is not yet accessible but don't actually do anything about it!
It's May half-term, which means that I have two copies of The Art and Science of Teaching Primary Reading to give away.
Just **retweet** this tweet for your chance to win a copy.
