Over the past decade, Talkback has witnessed a decline in the number of speech therapists and, consequently, a reduction in the time available to support young people – right when they need it most. We deeply value and respect the incredible work of speech therapists, and this is not a reflection on them. However, in response to concerns from parents, we have identified an organisation called Little Talk that is working on a new app to support speech and language development.
Little Talk is inviting parents of children with speech and language needs to three online sessions introducing their app. These 45-minute webinars will offer a chance to explore a new, interactive way to practise speech and language skills through daily exercises. Participants will also have the opportunity to share their experiences, frustrations, and insights, helping to shape the app’s development. The creators will demonstrate how it works and invite interested parents to join as early testers.
We have no financial involvement in this project – our goal is simply to connect families with a potential new resource that could make a real difference.
