Description

Nottinghamshire professionals work together to provide a joined-up and consistent approach to supporting the development of children's speech, language and communication skills. They recognise the paramount importance of ensuring all children experience language-rich envoronments with lots of opportunities to communicate in all aspects of their lives. This is so children achieve the language they need to do well at school, make friends and contribute positively to their communities.

Nottinghamshire Healthcare Speech and Language Therapists provide training and support for parents, families and professionals to achieve this, as well as working with others to support early identification of children in need of some extra help to achieve their potential in their speech, language and communication skills.
