Provide’s Children and Family Services aim to deliver evidence-based, holistic care to all of the children and their families that they work with to achieve the best possible outcome. They support children and families dealing with a number of concerns including hearing; behaviour; learning difficulties; eating and drinking and communication. The above link takes you directly to the page regarding communication and Communication Stations.

Children aged 2 – end of reception year with a mid-Essex GP can be brought to a  Communication Station without needing to complete a referral. Communication Stations are 15 minute appointments that involve meeting a Speech and Language Therapist to assess or review your child’s speech, language and communication through listening to your current concerns, observation and play. We will then offer advice and ensure that your child is put on the correct care pathway.
