The club providse an opportunity for children with recognised language & communication difficulties (and their siblings of primary school age) the opportunity to get involved in various activities. This affords the parents the opportunity to meet and chat with other parents. It is amazing how therapeutic it can be to share your experiences – especially with those who understand the parental frustrations firsthand. Don’t for a minute think this is a doom and gloom moaning session, it is a valuable support structure.
The first session will be held Tuesday 10th September 2013.
