Help spread the word about developmental language disorder, a common yet often hidden condition that makes it hard for children to understand what's said to them & to articulate thoughts & feelings. Lots of helpful resources & information at radld.org. #DLDday #DevLangDis @radld.bsky.social

It's been a bit of a week, so I haven't posted anything for #DLDday. But go and see what my amazing research team have been doing over at @edldproject.bsky.social and @sounds-project.bsky.social! We had a bake sale for @radld.bsky.social on Tuesday and made £82. Will aim for £100+ in 2026!

🚨 Only 3 days until #DLDday!💜💛 We were lucky enough to have Abraz Hussain come to speak with our older students about his personal experience of #DLD. Despite challenges, Abraz is a qualified social worker. His key message: 💬 "There’s no shame in asking for help." @radld.bsky.social #devlangdis

So proud to be leading this project! Please watch out for when we will start recruiting!

Teamwork across professions and agencies is crucial for supporting children with DLD (Developmental Language Disorder). Teachers, Speech and Language Therapists, families are crucial during the school phase. #DLDday #DevLangDis @radld.bsky.social @shaunziegenfusz.bsky.social
