😍 You know how much @RCSLT loves doing - and combining - as much awareness-raising as possible. 🪨 So it's great to do a bit of #RockingAphasia as we head off to #Leeds for tonight's event.
🪨 A bad dose of food poisoning might have scuppered my #RockingAfasia contribution this year, but @RCSLT's @GivingVoiceUK is going on tour. 🚆 So we're #RockingAphasia outside The Greatest Station. #Aphasia #KingsCross #HaveRockWillTravel #Yorkshire #TheNorth

Kat had a stroke 6 days after giving birth to her son. It’s been a long, hard fight but aphasia is not winning! Last year she took her first post stroke holiday - Ibiza! ☀️ She takes her son to school every day 💕 Kat is always active supporting NETA! 🎥 https://t.co/mDHkeqkSg2

Usually the first sign that Jackie has arrived at NETA is the sound of her fantastic laugh! Jackie takes her electric chair on the bus to come to NETA each week Jackie finds it hard to say any words but she is a powerful communicator. Here is her story: https://t.co/w2ZOfG79NL

I’ve got aphasia but aphasia has not got me! Aphasia is part of the tapestry of our lives that has drawn us together. It’s part of us but does not define us. We’ve been celebrating life with/despite #aphasia We are survivors, thrivers, inspirers! Here are our stories 🧵⬇️

#aphasia is a #hidden disability. It affects understanding, reading, talking and writing but not intelligence. Living with aphasia, in a world that hasn’t heard of it is tough! @NETA_Aphasia have a message … will you help? #AphasiaAwareJune @RockingAphasia #RockingAphasia
