Speech & Language Therapy
We support children and young people who have speech, language and communication difficulties to develop the best possible communication skills that they can. For some, this might be spoken communication, and for others it might be learning to use a communication aid, or an approach based on signs, symbols or gestures.
Speech and Language Therapists also assess, treat and advise on eating, drinking and swallowing problems.
