Communication Matters

Communication Matters (CM) is a UK-wide charity committed to supporting people of all ages who find talking difficult because they have little or no clear speech. This can be via paper based communication supports or computer based voice output, we call this AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication). Communication can be compromised across many conditions such as Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome, Brain Injury, Learning Difficulties and Autism. We have an associate membership of around 400 people. Members come from across the UK and from all the various interests in AAC – personal experience, professional, commercial and research. Members receive copies of our Journal which is published 3 times a year, amongst other benefits. We hold a number of events: most notably our International AAC Conference held over 2.5 days at the University of Leeds each September, as well as UK-wide AAC Information Days (product demonstration days) and Study Days which focus on a particular topic of AAC. We also have many online resources and publications and an AAC Forum. If you are interested in finding out more, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Additional Needs Advice Speech and Language Therapy Training

An annual student-lead initiative in the University of Sheffield where we invite students across different studies creating innovative solutions for individuals with disabled needs. Hackcessible is a 6 week long competition where we find people with disabled needs, known as challengers, to share their problems and propose a challenge to students to build an assistive device or prototype to help with their needs. Hackcessible has been running since 2018. It has brought challengers, engineering students, designers together to co-develop impactful solutions.
