An important read for any #SLT #AHP #medic #nurse #professional working with people with primary progressive aphasia - a powerful insight to living with loss of communication skills.

Signing off Twitter and the fabulous Better Conversations with Parkinson's project for a bit to go on maternity leave, but looking forward to resurfacing (from who knows what kind of chaos!) for BC Conference 2023 in November 😊 🥳

Our co-researchers are involved in lots of other important #Parkinsons research and projects... can't wait to hear more about this one and the impact of samba for people living with Parkinsons!

Very excited to have SLTs to talk to and lots of exciting ideas related to care for people living with #Parkinsons today at the Parkinson's UK Excellence Network #SLT conference - makes a change from usual between-baby-feeds entertainment! Looking forward to the development of specific guidelines

Returning to the Better Conversations with Parkinson's project has been exciting and exhausting (mostly the juggling with a very mobile 1 year old)… On #WorldParkinsonsDay2024 I am VERY grateful to be back working with the fantastic members of our #coproduction #PPI groups and research participants

Catching up on some literature and found this article a brilliant analysis of how #SLT support needs to adjust to the phase of #Parkinsons and level of family involvement needed – an unexpected name check for Better Conversations with Parkinson's was also a lovely bonus 🥳

Brilliant Parkinson's UK Excellence Network SLT meeting this morning - great to know there’s a fab swallow screen service improvement project by Hannah Hornby and support from Parkinson's UK and tech companies like Beautiful Voice to improve #SLT services for people with #Parkinsons

Such a joy to meet with our amazing co-production group this week to celebrate all their hard work. Thank you so much to you all (including those unable to join Nameeka Nicola Sirman ) for dedicating time in amongst your other exciting commitments SParky Samba Helen

Some wonderful examples of what people aim to put into practice after Philippa Clay's talk at the Parkinson's UK Excellence Network #SLT CEN yesterday

Back in touch with our #PPI groups and building a PPI network to plan the next stage of Better Conversations with Parkinson's research 🥳. A huge thank you to Hema’s café Parkinson's UK for people with #Parkinsons for having me in Leicester last week.

Through Better Conversations with Parkinson's I have been so fortunate to work with a hugely inspiring set of people affected by #Parkinsons. They have shown huge strength and resolve in dedicating their time and expertise to improve the lives of others. Today (World Parkinson's Day) I celebrate you 👏

Very excited to be working further with our PPI group to develop Better Conversations with Parkinson's. Here’s Katie & Chris talking about our work together so far: parkinsons.org.uk/research/resea…

Excited to be attending this later in the year :)

Catching up on Movers & Shakers: a podcast about Parkinson's pod about #relationships and #Parkinsons… I was really struck by how often the word #communication came up. Can we help relationships by improving everyday communication with Parkinson's? 🤔

Have your say on the new Parkinson's guidance created alongside Parkinson's UK the consultation is open from now until 12 September. We're seeking feedback from members, organisations that work w/ people w/ #Parkinsons & members of the public. ➡️rcslt.org/news/review-ou… #slpeeps
