Being able to speak and communicate with other people is an essential life skill. For most children and young people learning to communicate comes easily.

For some children and young people however it is a major challenge as they have speech and language impairment.

Afasic England is working to support these children and their parents, enabling then to overcome their speech and language difficulties.

Afasic supports and provides information for families with children and young adults who have Speech Language and Communication Needs (SLCN) with a focus on Developmental Language Disorder (DLD).

The Afasic England website contains a wealth of information for children, young people, their parents/carers and professionals who are providing support and services for them.
