Oldham Children's Speech and Language Therapy Service

The Children's Speech and Language Therapy Service is for children and young people with speech, language and communication difficulties and/or swallowing problems. There is also a service for adults who stammer.

We work in partnership with children, their parents/carers and other professionals to help the child to achieve his/her communication potential and to promote independence and self-management.

The service is delivered across a variety of community settings including schools, nurseries, health centres, children's centres and the child's home. We also provide pre-referral advice in our 'drop-in' sessions for preschool and school aged children. These are currently held in schools and children's centres across Oldham.
