Toria Kilsby, Trust Head of Profession for Speech and Language Therapy, Dietetics and Audiology, says: “Our CNWL Speech, Language and Communication Therapist, Christian Boakye, works in  Feltham YOI, and features in this podcast with the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists.

"It’s a fantastic half hour listen and a great overview of the value of SLT in supporting people in the justice system. Christian talks about the impact and clinical effectiveness of SLT in Feltham, the trauma informed approach and training, effective multidisciplinary team working – such as between SLT and Psychology, as well as professional diversity and Christian’s experience of the value of relatable role models, and how this can support engagement with the young people he works with."
