Alison Wainwright Speech and Language Therapy
Helping children and young people with communication needs to achieve their potential.
Welcome to Alison Wainwright Speech and Language Therapy. I am a qualified, independent Speech and Language Therapist working with children and young people in the Nottinghamshire area. I provide private Speech and Language Therapy in schools, nurseries, and private homes: wherever is the best situation for your child.
My Aim
I work to support children and young people with communication needs to achieve their academic, social and personal potential. I help young people who have communication difficulties to still do well at school, aspire to be their best, and take part in society. I also believe that children and young people make better progress when they enjoy what they do, and when everyone around them is fully supported to help them achieve. So I also strive to make therapy fun!

All over the world we have different systems for supporting children and young people with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). Whatever the system, children and young people with DLD need access to specialist assessment and support. The assessment helps to pinpoint the individuals’ strengths and challenges. Then to support a child or young person with DLD it needs a team: families, teachers, teaching assistants, Speech Pathologists/ Speech and Language Therapist and other professionals too.![]()
