At Sparking Speech, we’re dedicated to providing a holistic, collaborative approach to speech, language and communication development.
By offering specialised parent support groups, we aim to provide parents with the frameworks and knowledge needed to support their child and their child’s individual needs.
The AAC Advocates

Whether you’re a complete beginner, an intermediate user, or already experienced with AAC, this community is for you.
Inside the AAC Advocates, you’ll find:
- Access to my coveted AAC modelling parent course!
- Monthly Q&A calls with me, a highly specialist Speech & Language therapist.
- Monthly power hour calls to give you a dedicated space to personalise your child’s device.
- Community group support to get to know other parents and carers.
- AAC masterclasses on different topics each month.
- AAC resources and handouts to put what you learn into practice.
Doors are currently closed but will reopen for new members in 2026.

Let’s Communicate Together
Let’s Communicate Together is a self-paced course and community designed for parents, guardians and carers of Neurodivergent children.
Every child is unique and has their own way of learning, processing and communicating.
Created by Senior Speech & Language Therapists Aoife (Sparking Speech) and Julie (BEMe Therapy) our aim is to create a supportive and affirming environment for your child, encouraging their communication skills and celebrating their unique voice through evidence-based research and resources.
Our current course started in October 2025.
Dates are to be confirmed for our 2026 courses.
Cost: €350
