At least 2 million children in the UK are struggling to talk and understand words. My son, Amyas, is one of them.

We have fought for Speech and Language provision since he was 2 years old. The public sector is underfunded and therapists do not get 1:1 time with their patients. While we have successfully acquired funded provision for my son privately, we know that not all families are able to.

Speech and Language UK gives children and young people the skills they need so they aren't left behind. They do this by creating tools for schools and nurseries, giving advice and guidance to families and putting pressure on politicians.

With your support today, you can help children get help when they need it most, and look forward to a better future.
