2 years ago to the day I started as an NQP #SLT at @STSFTrust. Today I am handing in my paperwork for a Band 6 uplift in my team 🙌🥳

[Samantha Dent @DentSlt]

Really enjoying catching up on the last @DysfluencyCEN study day,in particular @the_communicat on portrayals of stammering in media. Thinking about about media and language my clients, families and network may have seen and how this can affect their perceptions/feelings @stammer

[InformationAutism @InformAutism]

Nursery keyworker of a child I've spent 8 months working with today said 'thank you so much for all your help, I'm so pleased with his progress and I would have felt lost without your support.' 😭❤ It's so nice to get positive feedback! #mySLTday

@jjpinwheel @northumbriapol don't give two hoots, didn't even speak to the suspect who we know was in our house! What do we even pay taxes for?

[Samantha Dent @DentSlt]

Hugely disappointed to hear a #speechtherapist on @BBCRadio2 this morning talk about how she doesn't 'talk properly' because she has a regional accent... offensive to the majority of the population, regional accents have no bearing whatsoever on our professional ability! 🙄 #SLT

[Match of the Day @BBCMOTD]

After years of avoiding interviews because of his stammer, @LUFC defender @lukeayling_8 is finally finding his voice 👊

Printer isn't working so drew my own talking anatomy picture for a session today. Rate my art skills 🤣 #mySLTday #talkinganatomy #talkingeducation #SLT

Anyone else just absolutely ashamed to be British? Not only are we the laughing stock of Europe, over Brexit, our government accepted millions in Russian donations and we are now the country refusing to take refugees from Ukraine. Children fleeing war. Not in my name.

Pretty iceberg

[Samantha Dent @DentSlt]

A 4yo client brought me a drawing they did of me today. I think the likeness is pretty good tbh #MySLTDay

[Have I Got News For You @haveigotnews]

Government scraps advice on working from home. No news yet on drinking at work.

[Samantha Dent @DentSlt]

I'm so thrilled to be joining the specialist Dysfluency team at @STSFTrust supporting older children who #stammer and their families. There's so much to learn from my incredible colleagues and I can't wait to start 🙌 #MySLTDay #dysfluency #stammering

[Samantha Dent @DentSlt]

Loving this birthday card made by my lovely colleagues! You know you're a peads SLT when... 🤣 #slt #jollyphonics #mysltday #speech #paedsslt

My 17yr old daughter just said “if one person dies from a prop gun in a movie set, everyone talks about its safety relentlessly but when kids die from mass shootings in schools, it’s not a big deal. It’s unbelievable💔” - how about no one should die from gun violence?

[Mushy @MusharafAsghar]

In my childhood I was always ridiculed for stammering.

I never knew why I was picked on for something I couldn’t control.

Years later, I am immensely proud of having a stammer and you should be too.

Let’s normalise stammering together.
