The Children’s Speech and Language Therapy team will be changing the way parents of preschool children access the service from October 2019, with the introduction of: C O M M U N I C AT I O N S TAT I O N S These will be drop in sessions for parents with concerns about their preschool child’s speech, language or communication development. This is for children aged from 2 to 5 years who have a GP in the Mid Essex area: Braintree, Halstead, Witham, Maldon, Burnham, South Woodham Ferrers and Chelmsford. No referral needed: parents can bring their child to one of the following locations/dates where a qualified Speech and Language therapist will listen to your concerns, assess your child and give advice.
Children in school or those with complex needs and/or feeding difficulties will still need to be referred, as is current practice, to the Care Co-ordination Centre, 900 The Crescent, Colchester Business Park, CO4 9YQ 0300 1310 111 Professionals who have specific concerns about a particular child with regard to attendance for example due to safeguarding issues, can also contact the service on the CCC number above to find out about booking a priority slot at the drop in clinic.
