BACKGROUND If you watch people communicating one thing quickly becomes obvious. Human beings like to gesture. But what is the purpose of these gestures? One is obviously communicative, i.e. they help the listener understand what is being said. However, this does not explain why people use gestures even when they cannot be seen. For example, people on the phone often gesture as much as if they were talking face to face. This had led to a different suggestion. It could be that gestures help us to compose language. In other words, gestures may help us to clarify our ideas and access words. When people have aphasia their speech and language therapists often encourage them to use gesture more. This may help in a number of ways: Gestures may stand in for lost words. So if the person cannot say  BMW they might be able to make a driving gesture instead. Gestures may help to clarify speech. If the person says  VNW instead of  BMW they may not be understood. However, if they produce a driving gesture at the same time their meaning may become clear. Finally, gestures may help to cue speech, or help the person to recover lost words. PROJECT  Enhancing communication in aphasia through gesture is investigating these possibilities. It is funded by the  HYPERLINK "http://www.stroke.org.uk" \t "_new" Stroke Association and will run for two years, from 2007 2009. We are looking for 20 people with severe aphasia who have very limited speech to take part in the study. They must have had a stroke or other neurological injury at least six months ago, have a regular conversation partner (family or friend) and be English speakers before their stroke (but they can be bilingual). Each person will receive 15 therapy sessions, aiming to improve gesture and word production. We will use tests before and after therapy to find out whether therapy has been effective, e.g. to see if it helps the person to produce more words or gestures. Participants who do not improve will be offered a second programme of therapy. This will again focus on gesture, and will additionally involve a family member or friend. The project is based at City University and therapy sessions will take place at the university clinic or at participants homes.
