Our Children's Speech and Language Team have partnered with Mable, a digital platform, to reduce waiting times.

In just two weeks, 147 young people began assessments, with 64 completed and 25 discharged with appropriate support.

A real joined-up approach which is already making a difference to our young patients and their families.
