After last night’s Opening Ceremony of the 33 World Congress of the #IALP, looking forward to the next few days of discussion, learning, and meeting other #SLTs from around the world. But before we begin, it’s time for the all important #firstcoffee ☕️ 🥰

Today I had the pleasure of meeting local MP @laurakyrkesmith.bsky.social when she visited school. Did my best to give a snapshot of how SLTs work in special schools & to capture the importance of Education & Health working together for integrated therapies, especially for paeds dysphagia #mysltday
A wonderful day at @nhmla.bsky.social with a friend visiting from Canada, seeing the stunning Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition #WPY60. And yes, we did have ice cream in November, courtesy of Venchi. When it’s that 😋, who cares about the 🥶!! 🥰🥰🥰
Walking home from dropping off daughter at drama class (aside: not at all convinced she needs lessons in this… 🤨) and spotted this lovely egret fishing 🥰
Happy to see you here @vjoffe.bsky.social 😍
Found this super useful mid-migration (and I was only ever super low-key on the other side). Thanks @kellyscaletta.bsky.social 🙏

My first post here definitely has to be Tendril Theory, because when I made this in 2015 I had no idea how often it would be ripped off. Tell your friends and your enemies to tag me please 😂
