This week’s Q&A Friday focuses on Down syndrome and how it can affect speech and language.

Children with Down syndrome may develop communication skills more slowly, and differences in hearing, muscle tone, and processing can play a role - but every child is unique.

If you’d like to learn more about how we can support communication development, visit our website or get in touch.

It’s Random Acts of Kindness Day 💜

One of the kindest things you can do for someone with speech or language difficulties is simply to give them time. Time to find their words. Time to finish their sentence. Time to feel heard.

Kindness in communication builds confidence - and sometimes the smallest act can make the biggest difference.

Not sure if your child needs speech and language therapy?

If they’re hard to understand, struggle with instructions or conversations, or seem frustrated when communicating, it’s okay to seek support. You know your child best.

We can listen to your concerns and carry out an assessment if needed.

Happy Valentine’s Day from all of us at ISLTS ❤️

We love any opportunity for a bit of arts and crafts - and Valentine’s card making is always a lovely way to combine creativity with communication. Alongside getting creative, we used the brilliant AAC app Proloquo2Go to model phrases linked to the language of love ❤️

Proloquo2Go is an easy-to-use communication app for people who cannot speak or need support to be understood, featuring natural-sounding voices and personalised vocabulary.

Creativity and communication really do go hand in hand!

Head to our website to find out more about how we can support your communication needs.

Last year - Actress/Author/Podcaster/Mum and Founder - Giovanna Fletcher () stepped up and shared her family’s experience of their son’s struggle with EBSA (Emotionally Based School Avoidance) - a condition where anxiety and overwhelming emotions make it very difficult for a child to attend school, even when they want to go.

At ISLTS, we are so pleased that EBSA is getting some legitimate airtime and grateful to Giovanna for giving parents a voice.

EBSA is about feeling unable to attend, not refusing out of defiance, and it can be incredibly stressful for children and families. Many parents feel completely ignored and unheard.

We know that emotional wellbeing, communication confidence, and anxiety can all interact and affect a child’s access to learning and participation in everyday life. Speech and language therapy can help with communication challenges that sometimes overlap with school anxiety, including supporting emotional regulation, social communication, and confidence in interactions.
