I am learning more about speech conditions everyday 🗣️ The brain 🧠 is very complex. Apraxia,Verbal Dyspraxia, Aphasia, Ataxia, Dysarthria, all effect the speech & can be brought on unexplainably as in my case, or from birth, or trauma from a stroke. This film is worth a watch & is streaming from this Friday.

Started as a fixed term contract and now we are here (aka 2 years later with the best MDT/friends). Thanks for everything team Maple 🍁 even brought me cat hiking socks for my travels - they know me so well😻 Have learnt so much and loved peads ABI. 💓 until next time TCT 👋🏻

[Ciara Knox @CiaraKnoxSLT]

Delighted that @Childrens_Trust have officially received their Communication Access UK accredition and can now proudly display the symbol to show their ongoing commitment to be an inclusive organisation - a huge team effort from all! 👏🥳⭐
Thank you @RCSLT for supporting us!

Please take a minute to answer & share

📣Do you use/need your RCSLT plastic card (the one that is replaced yearly)?

I’m passionate about the environment & sending a new card each year seems incredibly wasteful, I want to see if there’s a more sustainable way to do this 👇🏽

[Nikki Botting @botting_nikki]

This is shocking! Why don’t @gmb @DrHilaryJones say that Speech and Language Therapy is the main treatment for #aphasia - not music!

Please correct while you are on air.

@ClaireMusicT @slcnstories It is! It’s definitely a book for me! “I have something to say” is my favourite phrase! 😂

[Beccy Muggeridge @beccyslt]

Can’t thank @slcnstories enough for donating these amazing books. They will help our CYP with #ABI explore and understand acquired communication difficulties. I’ve already used Eddie the Elephant to explore feelings around #AAC with my amazing play colleague Rachel 🥰🥰🥰

[Beccy Muggeridge @beccyslt]

What #mySLTday has looked like for the last few weeks! Completed my goal of supporting communication #participation in the pool with my physio colleagues ✨🏊‍♀️ and went horse riding. Horse went for a chew of the device…”the horse ate my AAC” would have been a new one😂

[Beccy Muggeridge @beccyslt]

@KarenMTherapies @TobiiDynavox Highly recommend - so much fun! X

[Beccy Muggeridge @beccyslt]

Not sure who enjoyed this more… me or the CYP 😂 lots of language to be modelled making Forky! #AAC @TobiiDynavox #ToyStory

[Beccy Muggeridge @beccyslt]

@TobiiDynavox Have done!

[Beccy Muggeridge @beccyslt]

Great to see an #AAC user in @QueerEye season 6 episode 7! 🤩

[Beccy Muggeridge @beccyslt]

@BeckytheOT @sharontuppenyot @HannahF91014121 @Childrens_Trust We just make the crazy plans and you guys role with the madness!😂❤️ thank you!

[Beccy Muggeridge @beccyslt]

This was organised by CYP in a SLT/school project group to support #participation. One CYP is an #AAC user; contributing their ideas in a group was a very important skill to practice! So thankful we get opportunities like this to work together; team Maple are #MDT goals 🥇

[The Children's Trust @Childrens_Trust]

Young people at The Children's Trust organised a brilliant indoor football match yesterday! The children all enjoyed some sporting fun (and a bit of healthy rivalry!) but the match also helped them communicate in a group setting while working on their rehabilitation goals.

[Beccy Muggeridge @beccyslt]

Feeling lucky that this is our job!! Supporting #participation is the best part of SLT 🙌

[Hannah Ford @HannahF91014121]

Fantastic lunchtime trip to McDonalds with the older Maple CYP. Great practice for recalling learnt information (our orders!), voice work on volume & pace and confidence building in new environments. As well as @beccyslt and her young person using their AAC to order!
