  • Educational Talks: We hold talks with professionals and experts-by-experience to improve knowledge about the challenges faced by individuals with speech, language, communication, and swallowing difficulties.
  • Professional Development: We promote professional understanding and build connections with other relevant professions, including those in medical and educational fields.
  • Fundraising: With events such as pub quizzes, we raise funds for charities that support individuals with communication, and swallowing difficulties.
