We are doing a survey to understand why other professionals do/don't refer people with Primary Progressive Aphasia for speech-language support

We want Drs, nurses, psychologists, social workers, OTs, PTs & any other profession.

The survey can be accessed here: qualtrics.ucl.ac.uk/jfe/form/SV_...

Delighted to be presenting the ESO guideline on aphasia rehabilitation today at #NAC2025 in Uppsala. Panel discussion to follow. Looking forward to considering how we can implement the guidelines in clinical practice across Europe and beyond. @esostroke.bsky.social #LetsTalkAphasia
