Our relationship with Speech and Language UK
Dawn House is part of Speech and Language UK, a children’s charity that wants every child to face the future with confidence.
For 1.9 million children in the UK, learning to talk and understand words feels like an impossible hurdle. So, Speech and Language UK give children and young people the skills they need so they are not left behind, waiting to be understood.
We design innovative tools and training for thousands of nursery assistants and teachers to use in their classrooms. We give families the confidence and skills to help their children. And we put pressure on politicians to prioritise help for speech and language challenges.
Our vision
Every child who is facing challenges with talking and understanding words can look to the future with confidence.
Our mission
We give children and young people the skills they need so they aren’t left behind, waiting to be understood.
We do this by creating tools for schools and nurseries, giving advice and guidance to families and putting pressure on politicians.
For children struggling to talk and understand words, their whole lives are affected if they don’t get the help they need. They feel disconnected from their family. Unable to make friends. Unfairly punished for not following instructions they don’t understand. What does the future hold for them?
We must help more children, so that every child has the skills to face the future.
