Early SLT changes lives. Without support, children face higher risks of mental ill health, exclusion from school, and poor life chances. Thatโ€™s why weโ€™re calling on the Govt to #InvestInSLT and bring forward its SLT Action Plan.

Communication is a human right. Yet too many people wait months โ€” even years โ€” for SLT support. This must change. Thatโ€™s why weโ€™re calling on the Govt to #InvestInSLT and bring forward its SLT Action Plan.

Itโ€™s been 18 months since the #InvestInSLT petition was launched. Over 10,000 people joined us in two weeks. Their message was clear: access to speech and language therapy must improve. @RCSLT @PeterDJust @SKinnock @leckiegeorgia @pamslater26 @YasFirth8343 @about_speech

18 months ago today, the then Government responded to the #InvestInSLT petition. We call on the current Government to use the forthcoming Budget properly to fund SLT and to work with us on its SLT Action Plan. @leckiegeorgia @YasFirth8343 @about_speech @chris_kammy @PeterDJust

Thanks to @pamslater26 for drawing my attention to this video. We know that children don't always follow the research, but it's important as clinicians we are fully aware: https://t.co/Ghsxy3Hf12 ๐Ÿ’™
