According to England’s departing communication tsar, there is a lot of struggle being made by parents who have kids with language and speech difficulties due to front-line cuts.

The number of kids needing help and cuts to NHS services and to council corresponded, according to Jean Gross.

She added that two years back the percentage of parents who needed help was about 18 and this time it has increased to 28.

The ministers have stated that the new bill will be ensuring that help was given better by GPs as they will be placed in such a way.

Gross added that well being and life chances were more among children who had better communication skills and better awareness.

There was progress seen in recent years in language and speech that was acknowledged by her but she also said that much of the progress made was lost due to the cuts that were made.

She said, “It's the double whammy effect. Speech and language therapy services are funded by both the health services and the local authority. But what many I've seen are experiencing is that both these organizations have to make cuts of find savings.”
