May is Better Hearing and Speech Month!

I hope you have all had a wonderful ANZAC weekend and first week of school holidays! Here at Canterbury Speech and Language Therapy we have been preparing for the month of May - Better Hearing and Speech Month 2016! I'm sure it comes around faster every year ... it will be Christmas again before we know it!

Each May, Better Hearing & Speech Month provides an opportunity to raise awareness about communication disorders and the role of speech and language therapists and audiologists in providing life-changing treatment. You can read more about this on the ASHA (American Speech-Language-Hearing Association) website here - http://www.asha.org/BHSM/

For 2016, ASHA has decided on the theme "Communication Takes Care." We love this theme and think that Better Hearing and Speech Month is an awesome way to raise awareness of what we do. Keep an eye on our Facebook page - www.facebook.com/canterburyslt - over the next few weeks, as  we will be giving away some of these Canterbury Speech and Language Therapy vouchers in celebration of Better Hearing and Speech Month! Also, go ahead and give our page a like while you are over there. We post helpful articles, inspirational images, and updates of what is happening around Canterbury and within our clinic.

Feel free to get in touch if you would like any more information about Better Hearing and Speech Month, if you have any questions regarding our services, or if you would like to make an appointment. Remember - no referrals are needed, and we take bookings via this website, email, phone or our Facebook page.

Wishing everyone a safe and enjoyable last week of school holidays!
