Day 2 summary:
🗣️ Brilliant talks
⛴️ A tour of the RSS Discovery where we discovered we’d last about 6 mins on an Antarctic voyage & would immediately ask for Wi-Fi
💃🏼Ceilidh afterwards, proving that SLTs are surprisingly good at high-speed twirling when someone shouts “Strip the Willow”

#BASconf25

On the first day afternoon at #BASconf25, the aphasia-friendly session begins with an inspirational talk led by @quiteneate.bsky.social and Ciara Shiggins on designing accessible and inclusive audiovisual media for people with aphasia.
