Supporting children’s speech, language and communication development through the EasyPeasy app

Parents and carers of children in Leicester City are now able to access additional free support to help develop their child’s speech, language and communication skills through the EasyPeasy app, thanks to a collaboration between the app developers, Leicester City Council and Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust.

Families, early years providers and local partners will have free access to the EasyPeasy app across the project timeline, which provides access to tips, advice and activities from early years experts, partners and other parents and carers.

The app can be downloaded from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Once you have completed your registration, a premium subscription will be automatically activated.
