Thanks for hosting us @RCSLT. Much needed time and space for us to think about the future of our profession - which only becomes more crucial with an ageing population in my service at @PennineCareNHS #opmh #slt #dementia @dementiaunited @RareDementia @educatestock
It was great to welcome so many SLTs and @BeverleyHarden to RCSLT HQ in London today to talk about the RCSLT’s workforce strategy. A big thanks to all those who attended today. #slt #slpeeps #speechies #speechtherapy
