On the tip of my tongue Episode 2 - Living with Aphasia and Charities

  • Résumé

  • In this episode Jonathan Hirons and Rob Edwards talk to Barbara Chalk about running a charity for people with Aphasia.

    APHASIA

    "A lot of people's experience of aphasia is that nobody knows what it is and it's a hidden disability. Not being recognised as having something seriously wrong with you is incredibly frustrating"

    "Is there something, is this an insightful way to kind of talk about aphasia? Is there something inherent in the condition itself, being something to do with the voice rather than the body"

    ABOUT SAY APHASIA

    "The joy of it is it's run by people with aphasia. Now, you know, a lot of people with aphasia are quite young, working age, and if they can't go back to work, they're kind of, all their peers, all their friends will be working and they'll sit at home going feel so hopeless, I can't do anything."
