Excited to be talking in this @TheStrokeAssoc session on a topic very close to my heart: supporting people with aphasia help others with aphasia. Based on SUPERB trial. See also our course on setting up a peer befriending scheme https://t.co/N1He2UX5bY Online and self-directed.

What amazing outcomes from our 2024 ICAP. Exciting changes in use of technology, speed & fluency of reading, more balanced conversations with friends and ultimately participating more in conversations. Ongoing reflections with @clairefarring20

How do we choose what words or conversation topics to use as treatment stimuli in speech and language therapy?

This is not often reported in papers.

We asked a group of people with #aphasia what they thought:

The iTalkBetter clinical trial is out: https://t.co/3F1Xl4XhrA It's a self-supporting naming app that helps people with aphasia make large gains in their ability to retrieve trained words. Connected speech also improved and iTalkBetter use caused changes in brain volume #aphasia

The news re. this service is sad & shocking. Even as an SLT who has worked *forever*, I couldn't have navigated a possible #raredementia diagnosis in my family without the amazing expertise of @volkmer_anna & the #NHNN team. The service is a life -line, @DHSCgovuk & @NHSEngland
