So proud to launch my Higher Education Handbook today co-created with my Care Experienced Advisory Board #NCLW It has practical tips and advice for professionals working in higher education to improve help and support for care experienced people. Read ➡️bit.ly/3C4duqc
Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) is a difficulty with using and understanding words and sentences. This often goes undiagnosed meaning people with DLD do not always get the support they need.
Developmental Language Disorder is a hidden disability that affects 1/14, causing difficulties understanding & using language. Our Speech & Language Therapy colleagues love making these videos with our young service users to raise awareness. Happy #DLDday bit.ly/4eKIKJf
#DLDday is this week! Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) is so common that all SaLT need to know how to diagnose it. We have helpful FREE modules on our website. Bookmark for later! #DevLangDis naplic.org.uk/diagnosing-dld…
🛠️193 young people prevented from coming into care 🩷84% of young people living in a family We're proud to have supported Local Authorities to adopt powerful #ChildrensSocialCare innovations as part of 'Strengthening Families, Protecting Children': innovationunit.org/projects/stori…
The NHS in Cheshire and Merseyside has launched #KnowThe5Rights to help raise awareness of the rights of people with communication difficulties, when accessing NHS care. Find out more here: cheshireandmerseyside.nhs.uk/posts/nhs-equa…
Low-level disruption, underachievement and poor pupil wellbeing could be the result of hidden speech and language gaps. Read our blog and find out how to identify and address the issue: buff.ly/4eT7uQb
This tick list handout for children/parents to share with teachers to explain DLD and advocate for what is helpful, is genius! 🌟. Thanks @DLDandMe for a great resource! Thanks @NAPLIC for signposting in the newsletter 👍 dldandme.org/wp-content/upl…
Speech and Language Therapy needs proper investment so children and young people with #SLCN can thrive! We need the government to hear this, so please sign this petition. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6579… Share it too. Big thanks to @MikeysWish_VDA for starting this #InvestInSLT
As part if it’s implementation of the 'No Wrong Door' programme, @WarringtonBC launched 'The Lighthouse' in 2021—a hub dedicated to supporting young people in and on the edge of care. We spoke to the team involved 🎥👇
Do you struggle with various aspects of language? Do you think you might have #DevLangDis? Even without a diagnosis you can sign up to our database to receive regular emails about research opportunities, news and events centred around #DLD.
Today is ‘Developmental Language Disorder (or DLD) Awareness day’. It’s an invisible disorder. Let’s help spread awareness and if you think that you or someone you love may have DLD please seek support. @allontheboard #DLD #DLDday #ThinkDLD #DevLangDis
There is no formula for writing/recording/communicating info about young people in a trauma-informed way but @InnovateProj research helped us identify some helpful things to consider. Check out this amazing graphic @MichiMathias created to help us share our learning 👇
The cost of late or no intervention is huge. £16 billion for children services. This cannot continue! #LanguageMH #UCLMentalHealth
YP talking about her experience with DLD with some advice for professionals #mySLTday #languageMH #UCLMentalHealth - Write down what is being said so there is something permanent to take home -Take interest and time to get to know the individual. Build rapport.
From a young person with #DevLangDis. 'Talking therapy is just talking, talking talking. Why would a person with DLD want to sit in a room and just talk?' #LanguageMH #UCLMentalHealth
"I feel like other people have better boats and floats and life jackets" Young persons experience of #devLangDis Such a powerful message to teachers not to ignore the quiet children #languageMH #uclmentalhealth
From a young person with #DevLangDis. 'You can't see DLD but living with it makes her feel angry, overwhelmed, sad, lonely and frustrated.' Teachers see nodding and think it's all fine. That's masking! #LanguageMH #UCLMentalHealth
Hearing from a young person with #DevLangDis. At school she is a people pleaser and masks, but inside she is screaming. #SEMH is invisible to most. #LanguageMH #UCLMentalHealth
