Communication is at the heart of our relationships.
So when someone you love and care for has aphasia, you are affected too.
Caregivers of people with aphasia tell us that they:
often don’t feel informed about aphasia or what to expect;
can find it difficult to understand their loved one; and
are uncertain about how to help make conversations better.
We also know that caregiving can be isolating,
and that it’s easy for carers to put their own needs aside.
Workshops for family and friends
I am currently working to produce 3 free online workshops to support caregivers of people with aphasia, helping you to build your understanding of aphasia, and give you some tools to help you have easier conversations at home.
Please register your interest by email and I will be in touch with more information.
Information about what aphasia is, and what it isn’t. How to explain it to others, and what to expect.
Practical communication tools for you, the family member to help make conversations easier.
