Who am I?
My name is Madeleine Ashton and I have been a qualified Speech and Language Therapist since 2008. I have gained experience in a variety of settings, with both adults and children, in the UK and in Australia. I am HCPC registered and a member of the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists.
I have always maintained my work in public health (e.g. NHS) and currently work with babies and children who are unwell in hospital, part time. Throughout my professional experience, I have always had a special interest in the voice and upper airway (larynx) and have strived to develop my skills in that area.
I originally started-up Voice Box in 2014, but took a break from private practice to focus on my NHS work (and my young children!) Now I am ready to re-ignite it and look forward to meeting you!
