Speech Impairments

Dr Chetna Kang and Louisa Peacock focus on speech impairments

There are numerous speech disorders which affect people in different ways for different reasons.

But they can all be frustrating and stigmatising for those who have them.

This week we meet Damian from leighton Buzzard who suffered a stroke in the womb which left him speech impaired.

We'll find out what the common speech conditions are and how they are treated.

And we'll speak to the parent of a child with a speech disorder.
