After a stroke, Philip lost his ability to swallow. With the support of our Speech & Language Therapy team in South West Acute Hospital, he slowly rebuilt that skill. Today, a cup of tea means more than just a drink. 🔗westerntrust.hscni.net/speech-and-lan… @RCSLT #SwallowAware2026

@HollyHNews @BELFASTCITY_AIR Mum walked up to entrance roundabout after a flight, to make pick up easier for me, recieved £100 fine….appealed but the signage apparently should be enough….I hadnt been since new layout, it’s not easy - you drive in & look to be driving straight back out - very confusing…..

I’m at @BELFASTCITY_AIR A LOT. So I know how to navigate the labyrinth… but every time I’m there I see drivers struggling to follow the route to the correct carpark and inadvertently breaking the stringent rules on stopping. (£100 fine) It’s merciless. You’re set up to fail.

Did you see the wonderful Polly the dog from Ballinamallard hitting the headlines this week? When Polly's owner Adam had a cardiac arrest last year, the golden retriever's life-saving instincts alerted Adam's wife Hannah, who started #CPR and rang the emergency services, saving Adam's life. Polly and Hannah were honoured at British Heart Foundation's #HeartHeroes awards in London this week. You can learn CPR for free in 15 minutes using our interactive tool RevivR: 📷bhf.org.uk/.../how-to.../…

Over 40 healthcare professionals, politicians and stroke survivors attended a screening of a documentary about thrombectomy at Stormont to mark World Stroke Day 💜

We are at Altnagelvin Hospital @WesternHSCTrust raising awareness that stroke can affect anyone at any age on #WorldStrokeDay 💜 It’s a personal journey that can take years and  impacts every aspect of the lives of survivors and their families. But recovery is possible 💜

Thanks to @StephenNolan for raising awareness that stroke can affect anyone at any age and that many stroke survivors need long-term robust support to recover and live well #WorldStrokeDay 💜 @AlasdairOHara

It’s #WorldStrokeDay so it is no surprise @strokeassocni are all over the 📺, radio and media, raising awareness and attending local events. Join us in raising awareness of stroke and @strokeassocni support for stroke survivors at every step of their recovery journey 💜
