Concerned about a child’s talking, listening and understanding? Are you looking for more information about speech, language and communication?
I CAN helps parents and practitioners by providing information and resources through the I CAN Help Enquiry Service, via the Talking Point website and in person through our multi-disciplinary speech and language assessments for children.
I CAN Help Enquiry Service
I CAN’s Enquiry Service enables you to speak to a speech and language therapist for free via the telephone, email, Skype or Facebook.
Call 020 7843 2544 to arrange a free phone call or Skype call from one of our speech and language therapists, or email your questions to [email protected]. Alternatively you can send us a private message on Facebook. We can help explain any aspect of children’s talking and communication development that you may be concerned about.
Talking Point
The first stop for information on children’s communication: www.talkingpoint.org.uk
Find free activities, factsheets, videos and information about children’s speech, language and communication. There is a progress checker for you to use to see how your child’s communication is developing and a postcode search of local speech and language provision.
I CAN Assessments
I CAN’s speech and language assessment services provide families, professionals or local authorities with a joined up picture of a child’s speech, language and communication difficulties. I CAN’s multidisciplinary speech and language assessment services are available to all children between the ages of 4-19. Assessments take place either at I CAN’s Meath Centre in Surrey (4-11 years) or Dawn House in Nottinghamshire (4-19 years).
