About us

Afasic was founded in 1968 as a parent-led organisation to help children and young people with speech and language impairments and their families. 

We provide information and training for parents – and professionals – and produce a range of publications. 

Members meet in local groups in many areas of the UK, as well as sharing their experiences on our online forums. 

To find out more about Afasic and its activities please explore our website or contact us for more information.

Afasic Parents' Helpline - 0300 666 9410

We are the only helpline that knows enough about SLCN to help you understand your child’s difficulties, what help (s)he needs and how to get it. We also offer a ‘listening ear’ if you just want to talk to someone who understands.

No query is too small or too silly. If you are worried or even just want to check there’s nothing else you need to know or do, please get in touch. Read about what we can help with.
