A very interesting day at the 5th Doctoral Collaborative Conference between Ulster University and Queen’s University Belfast. Great opportunities to meet and connect with some amazing researchers and hear about their work.

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_...

Industrial action in the HSE - Notice served - Forsa Three weeks’ notice for industrial action in the HSE and Section 38 hospitals will be served on Monday, 10 March 2025.

Why are HSE workers taking industrial action?

Because 1000s of jobs just disappeared with a stroke of a pen, with no plan on how to fill the gaps or any risk assessment on what impact this may have on patients.

Those on the frontlines are fighting back.
