Communications Matters is a UK-wide charitable organisation committed to supporting people of all ages who find speech difficult.
We work to promote the best possible communication for people with complex communication needs and we aim to involve Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) users in everything we do.
Our Vision
A world where all individuals have a right to a 'voice' through the provision of equipment and ongoing support services.
Our Mission
Communication Matters values people who use any form of communication and promotes the individual’s right to participate in all aspects of life by using their most appropriate means of communication to express their thoughts, feelings, needs and desires.
Our aims are to:
- Involve AAC users
- Increase awareness and understanding of good practice in the field of AAC
- Improve service standards
- Encourage research
- Provide a forum for the exchange of information between professionals, AAC users and their families
