What does LPAA mean to me? "Participation. But not just being in the same room. Life. By engaging in things I enjoy. Sometimes, I may be included - but I still feel excluded and feel invisible." - a person with aphasia Lesson: We need to put supports in place!

Increasing communication access for people with aphasia is a key to creating an aphasia friendly environment. Here's some news from the UK where the Communication Access UK initiative was launched last year. #EauCLamarAphasia

[Kathy Cann @KathyCann1]

Good to see update on communication access UK in @rcslt_bulletin. 67% of ppl living with #aphasia experience isolation/depression, so brilliant to know there are places they can go where communication impairment is understood. Thank u @DurhamMarkets for getting involved.
