Time goes so fast so we're planning what we're going to do for October's selective mutism (SM) awareness month already.
We aim to blitz the local radio shows again with the lovely Natasha Dale who has become a brilliant ambassador for children and young people with SM, we'll have a local press campaign and a training day for parents and professionals.
If you know anyone who would benefit from the training, please let them know, places are limited.
The aims of the day are:
Uttoxeter Fire Station, Cheadle Rd, Uttoxeter ST14 7BX

The aims of the day are:

- To relate the above to an appropriate prevention or management plan:
- educating all
key people involved with the child
- creating the
right environment at home and at school

children and their peers about SM
- considering the
need for a formal programme
- formulating
