Weβve worked 18 months on these Guidelines that have been published online today. So proud of all the work of everyone involved and members of @NDSLTUK π Well done everyone, rcslt.org/news/new-guidance-β¦
Donβt miss our EDI keynote today at 12 at the #RCSLTConference on Disability and Neurodiversity. If youβve not already signed up, tickets are available at rcslt.org/events/rcslt-confeβ¦
Very proud to be accepting a Giving Voice award for @NDSLTUK and the Disability Working Group with @mazlavender. Today has really highlighted to me how important advocacy and representation is for those of us with lived experience of disability and discrimination #RCSLTAwards

Quite a few autistic people I know are struggling with the uncertainty of what will happen in the aftermath of the Queen's death. They're wondering what will happen tomorrow and in the coming days, if things like schools and shops will be open.
Does anyone know of any social stories of similar resources to support people with additional needs to understand the Queenβs death and associated upcoming changes (both long and short term)? If so, please share them here. Thanks!
Delivered a first intensive interaction training session to my team, now theyβre all excited to get started and I am absolutely buzzing to see them embark on their intensive interaction journeys π
Attended an excellent training session today on Autism Clinic Strategy from the Neurodiversity team - very refreshing to see a Neurodiversity affirming autism session that utilised lived experience to inform clinical guidance. Excited to see how the program develops!
First day in my new role working within schools for children with SEMH - excited and a little nervous to start this new step in my SLT career π
Calling folks who are either an #SLT or #SLT2B and neurodiverse. Currently looking to talk to my fellow #ActuallyAutistic, #ADHD, and #ND colleagues and students about your perspectives on #Neurodiversity within our profession for a talk. Please reply or DM me to get involved!

Day 3 - Level 6 Soft & Bitesized - we went for a chilli macaroni cheese with the crispy bits removed (made using Lidl extra thin macaroni) with thinly diced and very soft fajita veg. Delicious. πͺ€π§βπ³π
