Amelia’s London Bridges Walk for Afasic

Story

Friday 18th October is DLD Awareness Day. 

DLD stands for Developmental Language Disorder - the fact I have to say this shows why the awareness day is needed. DLD is a lifelong difficulty understanding and using language, and is thought to affect 1 in 14 people. Yet most people have never heard of it. 

Afasic supports the families of children and young people with speech and language needs, but has a special focus on DLD. 

Amelia has DLD and is a Young Ambassador for Afasic. She is participating in Afasic’s Walking for DLD event on 13th October (along with her Mum) to raise vital funds for Afasic, and to help raise awareness of DLD ahead of DLD Awareness Day.  She will be walking an 8km route, taking in 6 of the London bridges.

Supporting

Afasic

Afasic is a specialist charity that helps & supports children, young people & families affected by Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) & associated conditions. At least 7% of children & young people are affected by DLD; an average of 2 per school class. Children affected struggle to understand what's being said to them, or get frustrated at not being able to express themselves. Afasic is a parent led charity that aims to ensure children who struggle to communicate have the opportunity to learn & develop their communication skills, enjoy their childhood, and improve their life chances. We also aim to ensure that parents don't feel alone in what they are facing and are able to navigate complex education & health systems to get the support their child needs. What you do is a mission!!! Keep up your great work! Thank you for your time. We run a helpline & organise remote training courses for parents and specialist training for children at key points of transition. Please help to give a child their voice!
