Send us Fan MailSpeak Up for Aphasia: A Global Awareness Campaign UpdateGuest Claire Bennington updates on fundraising for an international aphasia awareness campaign creating a suite of animated videos in multiple languages, launched worldwide with one consistent message. The Tavistock Trust for Aphasia has pledged £35,429 if matched; the campaign is at 57% (about £22,304/42,000 AUD) and aims to raise the remainder by end of June 2026, with a global launch targeted for Aphasia Awareness Month in June 2027. Partners include the Collaboration of Aphasia Trialists for native-speaker translations, champion networks, and free hosting of assets. The message emphasizes “recognize, respond and respect” and that aphasia does not affect intelligence; listeners are asked to donate, fundraise, provide support letters, and follow “Speak Up for Aphasia” on Facebook.00:00 Welcome and Hosts00:18 What Is Aphasia01:24 Campaign Mission and Funding Goal05:16 Global Partners and Translations06:42 Public Message Recognize Respond Respect09:03 Timeline to June 2027 Launch11:09 How You Can Support13:02 Wrap Up and ResourcesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61572140991752Donate to the International Aphasia Awareness campaign:https://justgiving.com/campaign/qarc-uq-aphasia-awarenessSupport the showSupport the show: Donate NowThis podcast is funded by https://www.bas.org.ukTo watch Jonathan’s film: https://tipofmytonguefilm.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@tipofmytonguefilmLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathanhirons/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tipofmytonguepodcast/X: http://x.com/buffaloloungeukThe Tavistock Trust for Aphasia websitehttp://aphasiatavistocktrust.org
