🌍🩵Today is World Stroke Day🩵🌍

Today we’re recognising the impact of stroke — and the vital role rehabilitation plays in recovery.

After a stroke, changes to speech, language, understanding, and swallowing are common. Speech and Language Therapists (SALT) work alongside individuals and their families to rebuild these essential skills, helping people regain independence and confidence in daily life.

Recovery looks different for everyone, but with the right support, progress is always possible.

Let’s continue to raise awareness and ensure that everyone affected by stroke has access to the therapy and support they deserve.

✨ Last week I attended the British Aphasiology Society International Conference 2025. The theme was Community 💬💙—a reminder of how powerful connection, support, and belonging are for people living with aphasia.

Key takeaways:
🤝 Collaboration between therapists, families & people with aphasia makes therapy more meaningful.
☕ Community spaces like aphasia cafés reduce isolation & build confidence.
💡 Sharing knowledge helps everyone grow together.

I’m excited to bring these ideas into my therapy practice—because communication is stronger when we build it together. 💬🌍

This week I've been having some great conversations with clients about celebrating communication success - not what just needs improvement.

Instead of asking 'What went wrong', we're reflecting on:

💬What went well during that conversation?
🧠What strategies helped you feel more confident?
👏When did you feel understood or proud of how you expressed yourself?
🔁What could you do again next time to build on that success?

Shifting the focus to what's working helps build confidence, resilience, and motivation. Every small win matters - and reflecting on those wins is powerful 🌟

What's one communication moment you felt proud of this week?
