The chief executive of the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists (RCSLT) said it is “alarming” that a survey found almost one in four jobs are vacant across the UK.
A survey by the professional body found speech and language therapy (SLT) vacancies across the UK had reached 23% with almost all children’s services (96%) and nine out of 10 adult services (90%) which responded saying recruitment is more or much more challenging than at any time in the past three years.
