I was delighted to receive a message a few weeks ago from Helene Somerville. Helene had seen our website and reached out to me to introduce me to her lovely books for Children. It was so exciting to talk with Helene and we exchanged our books with each other.

This is an example of connections we hope to make through our website and social media, to make it easier for all parents to find information and resources on their journey to find their child's voice.

"As Speech and Language Therapists we are passionate about encouraging communication in children. Inspired by the many children and families that we have worked with, we wanted to create a book that families could share and enjoy, whilst modelling targeted speech sounds in order to encourage speech sound development.

​‘The Sound We Found’ is a book aimed at young children. It is suitable for any child who enjoys bright pictures and a rhyming story and, in particular, children who may be experiencing a delay in speech sound development. Baby Bear’s daily routine provides an example of how adults can model sounds throughout the day and how sound play can be incorporated into almost any activity"
