Dissertations submitted, academic learning complete. The very first cohort of Lincoln's MSc Speech & Language Therapy and their tutors taking time to celebrate. One final placement to go before they move into their first jobs. SLT superstars ๐ซ @RCSLTLearn@UoL_AHP@UoL_HSC
Had the full team out at 0700 this morning to meet a running group.
Logistically challenging, but thoroughly enjoyed by all (especially the one who got to put his feet up & eat snacks ๐)

Brilliant #frailty workshop this week. Ashamed to say I hadnโt anticipated how difficult meds bottles, thickening drinks, reading/writing and sit โก๏ธ stand would be!
Such an eye opener - thankyou @UoL_Physio & @UoL_MSc_SLT โญ๏ธ ๐ฉ๐ปโ๐ฆฏ
