About

We provide training opportunities for Speech & Language Therapy students on the programme at Newcastle University. Staff working in the Aphasia Centre are actively engaged in research into aphasia and aphasia therapy.

We have a strong philosophy of collaboration with the NHS, people with aphasia themselves, with the Tavistock Trust for Aphasia, and with NETA: the North East Trust for Aphasia.
