Supporting You to Support Your Child's Feeding and Communication Needs
South Lakes Speech & Language Therapy is an independent children’s therapy service based in South Cumbria.
We provide in-person speech, language and feeding therapy throughout Cumbria, Lancashire and Yorkshire.
Teletherapy is available for local families as well as families situated elsewhere.
“We highly recommend South Lakes Speech and Language Therapy to anyone looking for a personalised and professional approach to supporting their child’s speech and language development. We’ve been using the service since April, and our son is making steady, meaningful progress. Libby is fantastic — she tailors her approach to his specific needs, and ensures a consistent, cohesive strategy between home and school. She’s patient, transparent, communicates clearly, and always keeps us updated in a timely and effective way. Best of all, our son really enjoys the sessions!”

“…you have had a massive impact on my son, I was at the point of giving up hope, then you came along and now he can tell me his name, how old he is, where he lives, what’s clean and dirty and [he names] things he sees. …we’ve waited 7 [years], and [now] verbally [he] tell[s] [me] things when I least expect it. Not just me, the wider range of family have noticed a big change in his vocabulary and communication and understanding, I’m feeling excited and positive to see how much he changes from now to the next 6 months, just in 4 months he has changed alot.”
