Excited to see this important paper published! Clinicians working in dementia care take note! Lauren Bridgstock uses data from both our VOICE studies to examine what terms of endearment actually DO in real hospital interactions

Proud to share our latest paper demonstrating narrative-based therapy in aphasia. All came from a wonderful master's clinician (1st author) who knew the value of this approach and executed beautifully. Lots of techniques richly described! DM for access!

The voice study team MHSOPNottsHC Adult Speech and Language Therapy, Nottinghamshire Helen Caldwell NUH Acute SLT SFH Adult Speech and Language Therapy Team We really appreciate the time & effort members put into completing our surveys in spite of work pressures. Their value in raising the profession's profile with the Government has been significant. We hope as many of you as possible can help when you can.'

I find it frustrating and somewhat depressing when I see great clinical-academic posts like this advertised for medics when- after so many years of the NIHR developing NMAHPs- we STILL don't have equivalent posts Suzanne Rastrick della money RCSLTResearch Lisa Everton PhD
