A reminder Power of Attorney is arguably more important than a will, and more urgent. Just had a call on @thismorning from an older lady asking about moving bills into her name from her husbands, who she's caring for as he has early stage dementia. Yet she hadn't yet done Power of Attorney. This is by far the more urgent consideration. Get it done while someone has the capacity to sign it. Then if and when they lose their faculties, the transition so you can look after their finances (and health and welfare) for them is relatively easy. If not, leave it too late, and the money may be locked away unless you got to the Court of Protection which is often and expensive and time consuming nightmare. Better still get a PoA when young. I did mine before I was 40. It is in place, so that if I lose my faculties in the future at that point (not before) someone can take over.

@JenThomsonSLT @claudiadreads @RCSLT We’re thinking of running some groups. I was wondering about a SFA group. Keen to hear what others are doing!

@claudiadreads @RCSLT The #ICAP literature has some good group ideas, the #aphasia reading book groups too as well and what about a digital aphasia rehab (apps) group? (might also be worth a post on the "other platform" as growing aphasia community there...)

Inpatient #rehab #SLT what groups are you running to support language? Looking for inspiration @RCSLT

@LucyDipper @BCAphasia Ahh this looks like an amazing role. It’s a shame it’s not 0.4 WTE instead of 0.6 as I’d have applied otherwise!

What an absolute privilege to be ⁦@UKHouseofLords⁩ on #worldhomelessday2024 to celebrate the awesome ⁦@LeighAndrews⁩ and ⁦@ChgCommC⁩ + talk abt what we can all do to make sure communication is never a barrier - can’t wait 4 our ⁦@UCL_MScSLS⁩ yrBs 2 meet u!

#mydreamjob! I've got another year to go until I qualify, but if you're looking for a Band 5 #slt job now, I couldn't recommend this team more. #slt2b

🙋Do you have aphasia? 🙋‍♂️Do you want to take part in research? We are looking for people to help us compare assessments delivered either: 👥face-to-face or 💻online Speech therapists need to know they will get the same results. This research will find out, see the advert👇

Survey request for UK based speech and language therapy students. What are your experiences of aphasia therapy as a student? We've had 53 responses so far. Please share with UK SLT students. Thank you. cityunilondon.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_2r…

Really enjoyed this mornings Introduction to FEES Training (Day 1). Great to revise the anatomy of the larynx in preparation for analysing FEES. We’ve started our FEES journey @GraceSLT1! 🗣️
