Voice
The Movers and Shakers are back in the Notting Hill pub and this time they're discussing something close to the hearts of broadcasters, comedians and barristers alike: the human voice. The impact of Parkinson's – and its treatments – on the voice is well established, but what can be done to mitigate these issues? And how can we avoid allowing communication to dry up entirely in the fact of increased pressures and difficulties? Well, the gang have roped in an expert speech therapist to walk them through a variety of exercises (that you can join in with at home – just try not to wake the neighbours). And we've got testimony from outside the group about the impacts of a diminished voice, and how best to keep the vocal chords up to scratch.
