talking
point
This site has been set up
by I CAN, Afasic and the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists
as the first stop on-line for parents wanting information on children's
speech and language difficulties. With 1 in 10 children suffering from
some form of communication difficulty, it is vital that children get the
right help as early as possible in the pre-school years. This is obviously
a key concern for parents of young children and before Talking Point it
was very difficult for them to get the right information and support. |
