Middlesbrough Primary Care Trust provides speech and language therapy services for children in the Middlesbrough and Redcar Cleveland areas in the North East of England. In the main children accessed the service at one of only three community clinics and non-attendance was an issue. National and local policy changes, emerging evidence and feedback from all parties led to a full restructuring. Nikki Joyce and Jan Broomfield explain the process, the model (children / service / delivery / location), its implementation and the outcomes including improved attendance and satisfaction. The next steps for the service are also considered.
