speech and language

@Hijools @marjonuni at RCSLT 80th anniversary event in Southwark cathedral. Lovely to see lots of familiar faces and old colleagues @RCSLT

The next on-campus highly acclaimed 'Language and Mind: understanding language development and complex trauma' course will be 12/13/14 May 2025. So if you like the interactive nature of in person CPD take a look at the website. marjon.ac.uk/courses/short-…

Fantastic AAC awareness raising at lunchtime by our very own @EllaJames08 and @marjongv in the Hub restaurant transforming how we ordered and were served food and drink. 👏👏 @marjonuni

It's been a great afternoon attending the final yr celebration event @sltmarjon @slt_lizzie presented on the barriers to implementing #neurodiversity-affirming practice.

@carrie_biddle @slt_lizzie @SSHINE_Students #SLTclassof24

A powerful call to action to consider the privilege of non dysphagic people over dysphahic people #SLTclassof24 @marjon

#SLTclassof2024 afternoon session opens

A challenge to you all- why does speech and language therapy look like it's sitting on a chair at a table? Know why you're doing what you're doing and do it however is right for that child @MagpieChatter #SLTclassof24

The power of acknowledging without [implicit] blame...e.g."It's okay if your shoes won't let you do it" 👏👏 #SLTclassof24 @MagpieChatter

✨️✨️ if a child is described as having attention and / or listening difficulties , ask "what does this look like" and then be curious about what might underpin this description✨️✨️ we need to know where problems are to be effective #SLTclassof24 @MagpieChatter @marjonuni

Part of our professional role , is to help others see things through an SLT's eyes...check and recheck our and others' assumptions... #SLTclassof24 @marjonuni @MagpieChatter

As an SLT, you don't need all the skills, but you do need to be able to spot where the difficulties/differences are-wise words! Meet the people you work with where they are.... #SLTclassof24 @MagpieChatter @marjonuni

"Therapists need to listen and believe"- please let's never forget this. 🙏 Jess
