Speech & Language - Please Read

Given the government guidance regarding social distancing and non-essential social gatherings we have suspended all our groups, face to face sessions and activities. 

We will now host some of our sessions virtually. We are trying to work out the best way to offer our families ongoing Speech & Language therapy.

Lauren Drake and Ruth Mercer, our Speech & Language Therapists, can call families who access their groups over the next few weeks to discuss how people would like to access ongoing speech & language support. If you would like to arrange a call with Lauren or Ruth, please email ailith@sunshineansmiles.org.uk with your preferred contact number and a convenient time of day to call.

Speech & Language Therapy for Sunshine & Smiles Families 

Sessions delivered by our therapists Lauren Drake and Ruth Mercer, who work to build on your child’s social skills, and general language development. These sessions will focus on speech sounds, language in context, and understanding.

More information coming soon.
