6 days until #DysarthriaAwarenessDay! You can help people with #dysarthria by listening actively, allowing time to communicate and checking your understanding of their speech. 🗣️👂

5 days until #DysarthriaAwarenessDay. Social isolation is a very sad but real consequence of #dysarthria. As healthcare professionals, we must strive to do better for our service users and talk to them directly when discussing THEIR health and plans for treatment. 🗣️

4 days until #DysarthriaAwarenessDay. It is incredibly important to value how people living with #dysarthria perceive it. Acquired dysarthria can often result in negative feelings and comparison to how the individual sounded before their speech changed. Giving Voice

Only 3 days until #DysarthriaAwarenessDay. For many of us, speech is an easy, unconscious process. But how would you feel if you woke up one day and talking was suddenly much harder? This is the reality for people living with #dysarthria. Giving Voice

2 days until #DysarthriaAwarenessDay. #Dysarthria does not define a person. It affects how they communicate, and sadly how they are perceived by others, despite having no bearing on their intelligence or personality. Giving Voice Living with Dysarthria @KateAllatt

Speech is something many people don't have to think about, but what about those living with #dysarthria? Our Dysarthria Clinic is working with The University of Sheffield students and staff to raise awareness of the condition by launching the first ever #DysarthriaAwarenessDay tomorrow (10/5)!

We've been asking people to put a pompom in our jars to show whether they have or have not heard of #dysarthria. Over at the medical school it's a fairly even split so far, but definitely more in the 'have not' jar - luckily we're here to spread the word! #DysarthriaAwarenessDay
