Schools, trusts and employee involvement

Afasic relies on voluntary donations to enable it to provide vital services for children and young people with speech and language impairments and their families.

Afasic works to support children and their families across the UK with its helpline, information service, development officers, and local groups.

Speech and language impairments affect over 1 million children and young people across the UK, perhaps among your employees, members, school pupils etc. there are families affected by these often hidden disabilities.

There are many ways in which you can help us to maintain and develop our services for children and young people with speech and language impairments and their families. Over the years we have received support from many of the major Companies and Trusts, numerous schools and clubs.

At present we are particularly seeking support for the continuation and expansion of our telephone helpline, the production of new and reprinting of existing publications, and our community development work.

• £20 will pay for a free information pack to be sent to a parent.
• £38 will keep our helpline service open for an hour.
• £50 will pay for a place at a training event for a parent or a professional working with these children and young people.
• £300 will pay for a place for a child on a summer school for those facing the move to secondary school.
• £750 will pay for a children's art/craft workshop or multi sports session.
• £2,500 will cover the costs of a development officer for a month.
• £3,000 will help produce and distribute one edition of the members newsletter.

We very much hope that you will be able to make a donation towards our work. We are happy to acknowledge support received on any specific publications concerned, on our website, in our newsletter and in our annual review, or treat it as anonymous.
