Speech and communication

Not everyone with MND experiences problems with speech, but for some people muscles in the mouth, throat and chest are affected. Physical impairment can also impact on communication through gesture and facial expression.

Whatever your needs, there are communication aids that can assist. If you are concerned, please contact our helpline, MND Connect. You can get in touch by telephone, email or letter. They can provide information and support, or direct you to services
