​Communication means telling other people what you want, think and feel.

It means understanding other people and information.

​Communication can be lots of different things:

• talking
• listening 
• writing
• signing
• pointing and gestures
• drawing pictures 
• using photos and symbols
  

​We can help you communicate by giving you new tools, objects and sometimes electronic devices.

​We do this by coming to see you and watching how you communicate.

We might ask you some questions and talk to your family and carers.

​Dysphagia means you find it difficult to eat and drink.

If you have Dysphagia we can make changes to your diet to help you and keep you safe.

A Speech and Language Therapist can visit you in your home with your family or carers.

​Contact Single Point of Referral (SPOR) and ask for a form.

Your parent or support staff can do this for you, if you say it is ok.

Sometimes we will see you quickly, other times you will be put on a waiting list. 

​If you are worried about your health while you are waiting to see us call your doctor or nurse.
