We Can Help

You might have found our website because your child has recently received a diagnosis of autism or another developmental disorder. Or perhaps you have concerns that your child isn’t talking yet, take a look at our communication milestones guide opposite. Our website is packed full of information that can help, but we would always recommend that you speak to a healthcare professional if you have concerns.

We help with increasing your child’s communication skills through the use of PECS, decreasing behaviours that stop your usual family activities and help you and your child prepare for starting nursery or school.

Read about PECS on the NHS website.

Communication

PECS is a picture based communication system that can be used by all ages and abilities.

  • Learning PECS will not stop your child talking
  • The child doesn’t need to already understand symbols in order to start PECS
  • PECS is a flexible system that grows with the child
