We provide speech and language therapy tailored to individuals and provided in the comfort of their own home or nursing home. Our main focus is adults living with long term conditions. We are able to deal with problems with swallowing, speech, language and voice. We are also able to see little ones with speech sound problems.
Based in the South Bucks area we are able to travel to you in and around the borough and our nearby neighbours. Call or email if you want to find out if we can reach you.
We will be using and developing a range of specialist apps for iPhone and iPad so that therapy practise can be intensive, portable and more fun!
Our own apps are now available on the App Store!
