How to find a voice for Advance Care Planning is dedicated to the memory of Keith, an incredible gentleman I met many years ago and who taught me about the power and importance of voice in truly seeing a person.

In this episode I talk with Sophie Whitehead, a speech therapist specialising in palliative care. We talk about the crucial role Speech Therapists have on patient wellbeing, dignity and quality of life as well as supporting Advance Care Planning.

This episode links to previous podcasts, check out episode 34 in which Caroline England discusses voice recording for people with MND and episode 1 with the late Clair Fisher who has influenced Sophie’s work.

If you are a team looking to provide better end of life care, or set up a one off or complete education programme in end of life care head to www.speakformelpa.co.uk where I provide details on how I can help you. You will also find information about my Lasting Power of Attorney consultancy and the talks I offer for organisations.
