Hi @RishiSunak. I was asked today what I would say to you if I had the chance, so here it is ⬇️. Please read this new report from @RCSLT. We urgently need a workforce planning strategy for SLT, we need to #FundSLT and we need more SLTs. @DHSCgovuk. rcslt.org/wp-content/uploads…
“We can talk about vacancy rates but the reality is, the people it’s affecting are those waiting 2 years for their children to access services” @GillianRudd speaking to @bbcwm about #SpeechTherapy #SLT vacancies in West Midlands. It follows @RCSLT survey bit.ly/3KkxDZM

We are launching a new service today for the Emergency Department. We are diverting patients with MSK injuries direct to physiotherapy outpatients. We are hoping to reduce wait times, deliver quality MSK care and reduce the cost overall to the health service.

Have to admit, I cried at my desk editing this incredible piece by Rory Kinnear. People think it’s easy to write coherently through rage and grief - but it is not. He manages it though, beautifully. theguardian.com/commentisfre…
