We offer support to children and young people of all ages; from new born babies to children in school, through to the transition to adult services. As well as helping with communication we work with eating, drinking, and swallowing difficulties.
Our friendly and highly skilled team of speech and language therapists and assistant practitioners provide support in a variety of settings. We aim to tailor our service around each individual and their needs. We work in clinics, schools, hospitals and clients' own homes across the locality.
While most of our referrals come from GP's, schools, hospitals and health visitors, we run an open referral system. This means you can refer yourself or your child by contacting us directly.
