We are Speech and Language UK, and we want every child to face the future with
confidence. For at least 1.7 million children in the UK, learning to talk and
understand words feels like an impossible hurdle. So we give children and young
people the skills they need so they aren't left behind, waiting to be
understood. Our vision Every child who is facing challenges with talking and
understanding words can look to the future with confidence. Our mission We give
children and young people the skills they need so they aren't left behind,
waiting to be understood. We do this by creating tools for schools and
nurseries, giving advice and guidance to families and putting pressure on
politicians. For 1.7 million children in the UK, learning to talk and use words
feels like an impossible hurdle. Without the right help, this can destroy their
world. They feel disconnected from their family. Unable to make friends.
Unfairly punished for not following instructions they don’t understand. What
does the future hold for them? We must help more children , so that every child
has the skills to face the future.
