Churchill Fellowship:

In 2012 Claire was the first Speech and Language Therapist in the UK to be awarded a Winston Churchill Travelling Fellowship to visit Canada and the U.S.A. Claire's goal was to learn more about how music can be used within speech and language therapy, particularly following brain injuries/strokes. Claire now works collaboratively with Neurologic Music Therapists, running workshops and presenting at conferences, nationally and internationally.  She liaises with a worldwide network of music therapy and speech therapy professionals.

​

As a choral singer, Claire has gained specialist skills as a voice therapist, working with professional voice users (including teachers, sports coaches, radio announcers, call centre staff, and singers).

 

Claire provides workshops on Vocal Heath to professional voice users. She is regularly booked for school inset days to support teachers in preventing voice difficulties.
