The website at www.talkingpoint.org.ukis a joint initiative of the charities I CAN and Afasic, which represent children who have speech and language difficulties, and the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists. It was launched at a ceremony atop the BT Tower in London last week by HRH the Countess of Wessex in her new role as patron of the Royal College.
The interactive website is aimed at the more than one million children in the UK who have speech, language and communication difficulties (SLCDs), providing parents and professionals with information on their difficulties and advice on how to seek help. It enables them to share knowledge and best practice on SLCDs, gives answers to frequently asked questions and provides up-to-date news on developments. There is a comprehensive database of relevant organisations and professionals, and users can contribute ideas for the website's content.
