Ruth Mercer (Speech and Language Therapist) runs Speech and Language groups for our youngest children - those above 1 year who are not yet at school, who have already attended a 'Makaton Signing for Babies and Families' course. These take place during the working/school day on a Monday, once a month.
Caitlin Hardware (Speech and Language Therapist) runs groups for our primary and secondary school children and adults. These take place at the weekend or after school on weekdays, once every 6 weeks (in order to meet the high demand for this support).
