Fees
The first hour with a new client is free, but thereafter our one hourly fee applies to all our work: the provision of assessments, reports, individual or group therapy, and staff training. Our fee funds the provision of the Speech & Language therapist, the therapist’s supervision & training, plus all therapy materials, teaching aids, equipment, assessments & tests, licences and professional indemnity insurance necessary for therapy.
Around 75% of our expenditure goes on staff related costs and training. Regular acquisition of new materials and equipment account for a further 10% with the balance going on accreditation fees, subscriptions, insurances, and other administrative overheads.
