Thank you to RCSLT Northern Ireland for asking me to come and share some reflections on my 27 year career as an SLT. What a great day, fabulous inspirational speakers, and a chance to see so many dear colleagues past and present. It was a real privilege ❤️

Thank you Emma. I was delighted to include the brilliant infographic illustrating the six principles of a trauma informed approach (image on the left) from the Safeguarding Board for Northern Ireland Trauma Informed Toolkit. These principles do and always should underpin all we do as AHPs.
