Even when told about DLD lots of people don't seem to get what it is. And so we asked the experts, people with DLD (Developmental Language Disorder). One young person said DLD was 'trying to learn, but the words won't click.'
How do you explain DLD to others?

Thanks to tireless campaigning and advocacy from people like Siouxsie and Rachel, DLD was mentioned in the parliamentary SEND debate yesterday 🎉 grateful for all those who attended and made often invisible voices heard.
Yesterday at the @SpeechAndLangUK.bsky.social @dcpcampaign.bsky.social and Let Us Learn Too parliament drop-in, I met Siouxsie and her mum Rachel.
Siouxsie shared how living with Developmental Language Disorder often makes her feel invisible - a reality no child should face 🧵
