Are you worried that your son or daughter is not talking or not saying as much as other children of their age? Do you need to speak to someone who understands and can help? Then please contact the Afasic Helpline today.
We are know enough about SLCN to help you understand your child’s difficulties, what help (s)he needs and how to get it.
We also offer a ‘listening ear’ if you just want to talk to someone who understands. No query is too small or too silly. If you are worried or even just want to check there’s nothing else you need to know or do, please get in touch. Read about what we can help with.
Don’t delay. Call us today.

- Speech and language therapy
- How schools can and should help
