Very powerful group session today sharing the experiences of living with acquired dysarthria 🗣️ Excited to be involved in this campaign!

⏰ The countdown is on, lots of things to come! We hope this is the first of many #DysarthriaAwarenessDay #Dysarthria #DysarthriaAwareness

Listening to how those with lived experience of #dysarthria perceive their speech is so important to better understand the difficulties they face. 1 week til the big day! #DysarthriaAwarenessDay

Tomorrow is #DysarthriaAwarenessDay! People with #dysarthria are sometimes difficult to understand. People often do not mind if you ask them to repeat what they have said to help to understand them better. Giving Voice RCSLTLearn Faculty of Health | University of Sheffield

Speech is something many people don't have to think about, but what about those living with #dysarthria? Our Dysarthria Clinic is working with The University of Sheffield students and staff to raise awareness of the condition by launching the first ever #DysarthriaAwarenessDay tomorrow (10/5)!

We are now all set up at The Wave to spread more #DysarthriaAwareness 🥳🗣️ Please come down to say hello and fill in a speech bubble to celebrate the first ever #DysarthriaAwarenessDay

We are so grateful to some of our amazing clients for supporting us on #DysarthriaAwarenessDay. People have highly valued hearing their experiences 🗣️

66% of people we spoke to today said they hadn’t heard of #dysarthria. We as #SLT2Bs will continue to advocate and educate for #DysarthriaAwareness and #DysarthriaAwarenessDay 🗣️

It’s days like today that make me glad I chose to study at Human Communication Sciences | Sheffield. Thank you to Dr Caroline Haw 🏳️‍⚧️ and Catherine Tattersall for allowing and supporting us to run this amazing event! Can’t wait to see what the future holds for #DysarthriaAwarenessDay 👀🙌🏻
