Policy work with governments

To deliver its mission the RCSLT Policy and Partnerships Team aims to:

• represent the interests of speech and language therapists and support workers and provide a voice locally, nationally and internationally
• influence and lobby governments and others to shape policy so that issues concerning the profession are reflected in public policy and people with communication, eating, drinking or swallowing difficulties receive optimum care
