Great start on some short, accessible, and interesting poster presentations from Dr Hope Schlesinger on depression and suicidality in people with post-stroke aphasia and Emma Patchwood on #ACT and Wellbeing After Stroke (WAterS) study #OPSYRIS2021

Enjoying all the great poster presentations at #OPSYRIS2021! Especially intrigued by Hannah Foote's work on training paraprofessionals to deliver #AcceptanceandCommitmentTherapy to stroke survivors. Great work. Can't wait to see more from the Wellbeing After Stroke (WAterS) study team! #StrokeResearch

Enjoyed chatting about Wellbeing After Stroke (WAterS) study exploring #ACT to improve #psychological #adjustment. Hoping to secure #funds for work to enhance accessibility, inclusivity and workforce-reach going forward 🤞Thanks for listening, #UKSF22 crowd!

We're very happy that we have circulated our #EasyAccess report on study findings from the #Wellbeing after #Stroke study to #research participants (front page here). Contact us to receive a copy. A reading for accessibility is available here: youtube.com/@watersstudy.

Bit slow to share (still not used to a study account + personal!) But we're thrilled about going forward to WAterS-2. Watch this space for more info and please do follow and share this account so we can reach you in future 😁 GM Neurorehab & Integrated Stroke Delivery Network Stroke Association GJBrainResearch

Very happy to have arrived at this event today, hoping to find some people interested in Wellbeing After Stroke (WAterS) study study #pcpi #research #wellbeing #stroke

I'm slow at posting things! But I'd feel remiss not to mention the fabulous #HealthChampions event last Saturday 30th at Millenium Powerhouse in Moss Side where I chatted to a diverse range of folks about Wellbeing After Stroke (WAterS) study and #research in general. I look forward to more collabs!

Contact us if you're interested in working together #pcpi #Stroke #research #wellbeing

Such a wonderful first meet of our Wellbeing After Stroke (WAterS) study Research Advisory Panel (RAP). So excited about the work we'll do to increase the reach of #Stroke #support for #wellbeing. Please follow our WAterS account (tagged) to find out more! #pcpie #involvement #health #inequalities

And an exciting start by Singing Medicine - we love singing for wellbeing... perhaps we should integrate some (mindful) singing into WAterS.... what do you think? 😉

So proud to work with Audrey Bowen and do our small part towards trying to shift the needle RE #health #inequalities in #stroke #research

"Physically, there can be a range of severity of stroke.... but emotionally, there is no such thing as a minor stroke" - powerful stuff at #uksf23 in the #neuropsychological #rehabilitation session. We need better reach for psychology support. We hope waters will help

Enjoyed this #uksf23 session and will be using Stroke Association communication pack resources to support #research #inclusion in Wellbeing After Stroke (WAterS) study. Also recommend checking out resources from Speakeasy charity: speakeasy-aphasia.org.uk/aphasia/resear…

Wonderful talk from Suzie Wang - there is so much more we can do to support people from #minoritised #ethnic #groups to receive #peer #support after stroke! We hope Wellbeing After Stroke (WAterS) study will generate more cross-cutting learning in this field

"Go where Black & Asian people are" say #uksf23 panel... consider existing groups/charities; faith groups. Don't underestimate the #resource required to do #pcpie in new groups. WAterS-2 is investing a LOT of time & passion on this. It's worth it - we're already seeing benefit

Our #Stroke #research is #recruiting professionals to understand your views on #implementing support for psychological #wellbeing. Please #ContactUs on here / via the details below to find out more
