Our Training
We have training videos in the Children’s Speech and Language Therapy service. These videos are for parents, carers and educational settings to help their understanding of a child’s speech, language and communication needs, and how to support them.
Some videos are available to everyone (universal). You can find the links to these videos below.
Other videos are only shared when they are needed. If any of these videos would help your child or young person, we will send you the link after you have spoken to someone from our team.
