#BASConf25

Presented our Mini creative CPT with Leeds NHS acute stroke ward & Leeds Museum & Galleries. Reflections:
1. Sharing challenges 😳 can inspire others to try
2. #creativehealth can help see the person behind a stroke
3. Perseverance needed

#BASConf25 great presentation right now about magic ingredients of “The AphasicTheatre” based in Canada. What an exciting example of #creativehealth approach to a personal recovery programme spoken about by Dr Molly Manning, raising awareness and making such programmes replicable !

This looks like a fantastic initiative!!

Love this esp. conversation between adult & baby. Turn-taking, one partner with no words. Reminds me of early motherhood & also bonding power of conversations despite communication differences: making comments, engaging topic, 👀contact, responding to intonation 🥰. Fab!!

Heard of The British Aphasiology Society? Why not join this #AphasiaAwarenessMonth and attend the #BAS International Conference this Aug!? We’re presenting progress with our Mini creative CPT with Leeds NHS acute stroke ward & Leeds Museum & Galleries

We are off to the #CareShowLondon tomorrow at ExCel! Can’t wait to find out all about innovative new practice in the care sector and (of course!!) to raise awareness of all things communication and the benefits of our Inclusive Conversation training!!

We had a lovely day spreading the word about #acquiredcommunicationdifferences and being an inclusive conversation partner with Retirement Villages Group last week. #aphasia #dysarthria #apraxia #retirementvillages #CPT

Today is #NationalLet’sLaughDay
Did you know people with communication differences (#aphasia #dysarthria #apraxia) may use laughter to cover up embarrassment at struggling to find or say a word.
Let people know:
embarrassment not needed- take your time! Be an #inclusiveconversation partner.

3-weeks till PPA Awareness day 4 April!

By working together, we can change that! We’re thrilled to be sharing our knowledge and supporting #RetirementVillagesGroup in making meaningful conversations possible for everyone. 💛
📢 Watch this space for updates!

Here’s why this matters:
🔹 1 in 5 of us will experience a change in our communication at some point in our lives.
🔹 Right now, 364,000 people in the UK are living with aphasia.
🔹 But shockingly, only 3% of the UK population knows what aphasia is—let alone how to be an inclusive conversation partner.

In just one week, Lemonade from Lemons will be delivering our Inclusive Conversation Training to the incredible team at #RetirementVillagesGroupLtd! 🎉
We can’t wait to work with them to explore how they can make their communities as communication-inclusive as possible.
