Thank you to everyone who came along to this interactive peer support session which led to lots of thoughtful discussion about EILO cases and services.

4 cases were presented and ideas were shared. A discussion took place about the referral and treatment pathway for patients with EILO and speech therapy treatments and a look at the research.

The CEN are trying to collect information from services offering laryngoscopy, provocation scoping and continuous laryngosocpy. Our aim is to create a directory of services with contact information so that members can network and signpost effectively. Get in touch if you would like to share details of your service with us for this directory. An email went out to members in mid November with a link to the online survey.
