Our next meeting is scheduled for Wed 7th June at the usual venue: Royal British Legion, Longton. On this occasion, one of our Speech and Language Specialists, Julie will be giving a talk on this important subject.
Treatment for Head and Neck cancer often results in long-term difficulties with speech and swallowing but there are several ways these problems can be helped. SLTs form a part of the Multi-Disciplinary Team who meet regularly behind the scenes to plan your treatment and aftercare.
We look forward to hearing what Julie has to say, and in the meantime here’s a link to the NHS site for the Royal Stoke and County hospitals. Once on the page, scroll down to the box called “Head and Neck and Thyroid Cancer”. Clicking there, then scrolling down will access a detailed page including video introductions to the various specialities, including SLT.
There are contact details for several other groups on the page as well.
Here’s the link:
Look forward to seeing you all in June…
