Thanks to Jess Meredith from Differing Minds for the opportunity to raise awareness of the relatively common but under-diagnosed neurodevelopmental condition DLD (especially in adults) with our conversation last week. Catch us on You Tube.

Excited to be supporting adults with DLD (developmental language disorder) to participate fully in the final workshop of 'DLD Questions' tomorrow at RCSLT in London, shaping future research priorities for DLD with people with lived experience and their families and speech and language therapists.

Thank you @Susan Guthrie for bringing together SLTs working in mental health with colleagues working with adults with DLD (developmental language disorder) at Leeds Beckett University last week. Hope this will be the first of many opportunities to work together on these important issues.

Great to get together with SLT colleagues from a wide range of settings at the first meeting of the NAPLIC network for working with adults with DLD on Friday! Next meeting 9th July.

Fascinating insights into the adult experience of assessment/diagnosis of autism/ADHD at the Diagnostics CEN on Wednesday. Time to give the same opportunities for assessment and feedback to adults with developmental language disorder (DLD)! #DLD #DevLangDis #RADLD #inclusion #neurodiversity

I've joined Blue Sky to raise awareness about developmental language disorder (DLD) in adults. It so often gets left out of discussions about neurodivergence. I'll be posting more on this soon. #DevLangDis #RADLD #NAPLIC #AFASIC #inclusion #neurodiversity #neurodiversityatwork
