Rebecca Boddington - SLT Services

Rebecca Boddington - SLT Services I’m Rebecca Boddington, a Highly Specialist Speech and Language Therapist. I work with adults with neurological communication and swallowing needs. Hello!

I visit in your home. I cover North and West Yorkshire. I am Rebecca Boddington (Highly Specialist Speech and Language Therapist). Having left the NHS in 2024, I bring with me nearly a decade of experience working with adults who have acquired a communication and/or swallowing difficulty. The majority of my work has been with people who have a diagnosis affecting the brain, including motor neurone disease, Parkinson's, dementia, Huntington's disease, MS, brain tumour and stroke. I also have experience working with respiratory, elderly medicine and surgical specialties. I am deeply passionate about supporting and empowering my clients to live well, through evidence-based, holistic and thoughtful therapeutic management. I offer services for individuals in their own homes and care settings. I have highly developed skills in assessment of communication and/or swallowing needs, as well as mental capacity. I can provide and deliver comprehensive therapy plans which target meaningful, functional gains in the context of your daily life. I am keen that my service is not in opposition or a duplicate of NHS provision, but an enhanced offering which mitigates the challenges clients may experience accessing care due to waiting times or commissioning. I have current HCPC registration (23/25) and can be searched on the register via 'Boddington' or 'SL33471'. I am fully insured as a certified member of the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapy. I am a member of the Association of Speech and Language Therapists in Independent Practice. I would love to talk more about what I could offer, please do get in touch for a free consultation.

During the Christmas break (oh so long ago!) I enjoyed some time reflecting on my experiences in 2025.

- The kitchen tables I have sat at, the joy and pain shared, the generous thanks, recommendations and kind words.

- The professional communities which have welcomed and supported me.

- The things I have learned - personally and professionally.

2026 has begun with a clearer vision, bigger aspirations and increasing confidence ...

What is the learning you're bringing with you from 2025?

💥 I was ready to be back with a bang for the first working week of 2026, but that bang was more of a fizzle and back to bed as the latest virus had other plans for me …

👋 So here I am! It’s the second week of January I am recovered and ready to say Happy New Year!

💕 2025 was such an exciting year, shaped by some giant leaps and 2026 is already packed with exciting things for speech and language therapy and for Rebecca Boddington - SLT Services.

😊 Looking forward to sharing it with you!

I’m signing off for Christmas now. 🎄

My next working day is Tuesday 6th January.

It has been a fabulous year, filled with opportunities to work with incredible clients and colleagues. I feel truly reconnected to the things I love about speech and language therapy and can’t wait to see what 2026 might bring. Perhaps it will be as happy and chaotic as our family Christmas tree?!

Sending warm festive wishes x

Just a quick shout out on the power of speech and language therapy ...

I had an amazing and emotional multidisciplinary team meeting yesterday.

The feedback from a family member about the impact of the therapy team and specifically speech and language therapy intervention was such a joy.

The work of the client has enabled them to achieve amazing things but also such a privilege to be a part of the work and help to shape their future.

Although amazing, that's not the end of the story and nothing is wrapped in a shiny bow - the journey continues and whilst it's exciting to think about what the next steps will hold for this client there's plenty of hard work along the way to get there.

I am really looking forward to attending the Royal College Of Speech and Language Therapists (RCSLT) 2025 conference over the next 2 days.

How exciting to be part of our profession as Royal College celebrates 80 years!

There are some brilliant presentations and speakers ... the most difficult bit is going to be choosing which sessions to attend!!

Miserable weather … wet lunch in a lay-by earlier this week after a long day driving.

Fortunately this was punctuated with a successful training session for a client’s support team!

Provide jammy dodgers and people will listen 💕

It’s a very special occasion for one of my clients this week and what a privilege it has been to share in their 99th year!

Importantly, this client is a great example that age shouldn’t be a barrier to rehabilitation, making excellent gains in therapy and progressing towards their goals.

Looking forward to giving them all my best wishes for a wonderful 100th birthday 🎉
