For just the price of your morning coffee, latte or double caramel frappuccino, you could make a real difference to a young person’s future.
So this week we're challenging you and your colleagues, instead of buying your morning coffee, to donate the £3 you'd spend to support the 1 in 5 children are struggling with talking and understanding words.
Children with speech and language challenges are twice as likely to be unemployed as an adult because they are not receiving the help they urgently need right now.
60% of young offenders have language difficulties.
81% of children with mental health difficulties have speech and language challenges.
Here at Speech and Language UK, we give families the confidence and skills to help their children which includes our vital advice line.
It costs £1,277.03 to keep our advice line operational for a whole week. Our advice line is often at full capacity, so it’s urgent that we can provide more appointments for families who desperately need help If everyone who receives this email gave just £3, we can cover this cost for six years, ensuring that all families can have the vital support they need.
One coffee vs. one week of crucial support. It’s an easy choice when you think about it!
Swap your coffee this week, save a young future.
