The Speech & Language Therapy #Parkinsons Clinical Excellence Network held their first AGM this morning.
It was fantastic to bring people together to network & hear about the developments in SLT to support people with Parkinson’s. Here are some of the smiley faces!

Soo glad to see this petition to end the postcode lottery for stroke rehab.
I’ve worked with #stroke in 8 NHS Trusts - 4 of those within a 20 mile radius of each other - the difference in quality/resource/intensity is 😮 .
Pls ✍🏽!!!

We're concerned about the Prime Minister's welfare plans announced on Friday.

People with Parkinson's are regularly failed by welfare assessors. We'll always advocate for the Parkinson's community, for a fair system that enables a healthy dignified life. We await more details.

When we’re on the wards we’re often greeted by shouts of “SALT!” or “the SALT lady is here!” or “it’s the SALT nurse!” #mythbustingmonday SALT does not equal ❌ Swallow Assessment Lady Team! SALT = Speech and Language Therapy ✅ & our job is about SO much more than the swallow!
