🌟 Virtual Work Experience Workshop Today! 🌟
I had the absolute pleasure of leading today’s virtual work experience session — and what an inspiring group it was! 💬🧠
I shared my own journey into speech and language therapy, the passion that drives me, and the importance of diversity, inclusion, and providing an equitable service for all. At the heart of it all is our goal: to improve quality of life and patient care through communication and connection. ❤️
We explored the many sides of this incredible profession — from supporting patients across the stroke pathway to working with individuals in the community, and what a day in the life of an SLT really looks like.
We also covered:
✅ Different routes into the profession – uni, apprenticeships, access courses
✅ Personal statement support to make applications shine
✅ Interview tips to help candidates feel confident and prepared
✅ And how to make a difference in one of the most rewarding careers in healthcare
To anyone thinking of becoming a speech and language therapist: your voice matters, your perspective matters — and you can truly change lives. 🙌🏽
