Supporting Children with Speech, Language and Communication Difficulties
I am a university student, studying Product Design, and for my final year project my aim is to design a product to help children with Speech, Language and Communication Needs (SLCN).

The aim of this questionnaire is to help me understand issues related to supporting children with SLCN, and areas where current communication aids and development products could be improved. Hence, I am seeking input from professionals who support children with various Speech, Language and Communication Needs, and so would really appreciate you taking the time to complete the questionnaire.

By completing this questionnaire you are consenting to the use of your answers for this project. Your answers will be anonymous and used only for this project. You can skip any questions you do not feel comfortable answering.

Thank you for your participation.
