Why we are here
|
It
is estimated that there are 2.5 million people in the UK with a communication impairment. This site is designed to
promote awareness and knowledge of communication impairment, and to be
the UK's national information resource for people with communication
impairment, their carers and service providers. The site includes:-
- Details of
organisations that can
help adults and children who suffer from communication impairment.
- Information
about speech and language therapy for adults
and children.
- News and events of relevance to people with
communication impairment, their carers and service providers.
- Scope for
individuals to contribute to a dictionary of
speech and language terms in plain English. The dictionary is
currently being drawn up, and you can now access the discussion on
terminology via the members area. Please email
us with any proposed additions or changes.
The Communications Forum is a registered charity set up in 1994 to bring together the organisations concerned with the needs of people with speech and language impairments.
At the 2006 Annual General Meeting the members of the Forum agreed the Development Plan put forward by the Trustees as the blueprint for the Forum's future development. You can download a copy of the plan (in pdf format) here.
