Welcome to The Lejeune Clinic
Providing Specialist Therapy for Children with Down Syndrome and their Families
The Lejeune Clinic runs Speech & Language and Occupational Therapy Sessions for Children with Down syndrome from birth to eighteen years old.
All our sessions are led by specialist therapists and focus on supporting language and communication development and physical dexterity and strengthening.
Our tailored sessions are a great resource for parents and carers to get advice and learn how to create opportunities at home and at nursery or school to encourage their child's ongoing development.
The theraputic interventions are fun to do and are proven to have excellent outcomes.
Our small group sessions enable parents to talk about their child's progress and find out what to do now. The therapists guide parents on how they can incorporate the simple to use strategies into their child's everyday routines.
We run a variety of sessions including :
Online Speech & Language Advice Sessions, Face-to-Face Clinics at the London Children's Practice, Webinars and One-to-One Teletherapy for Children with Complex Needs.
We aim to supplement NHS therapy services and our Clinics combine practical advice, observation and discussion.
We offer subsidised rates for all our sessions so that every family can afford to attend. Any family who may struggle with the costs can contact us to ask for further support.
Parent Webinar Workshops:
We run a range of Topical Webinars.
NEXT DATE: To be announced!

“...A great source of intensive and tailored advice on both learning development and physical development. Great practical advice, useful materials to use at home and ideas for how to continue development.”
Speech & Language Therapy (SALT) and Occupational Therapy (OT) are proven to have hugely beneficial effects on the progress and development of children with Down syndrome. Our targeted sessions are run by specialist therapists and parents are invited to join the sessions to learn about the practical activities that can be incorporated into their child’s everyday life.
"The Lejeune Clinic has been such a huge support to us since we had our son. The webinars and sessions we have taken part in have been invaluable to our family in ensuring we get the right support for our son in the early, significant stages of his development!
The speech and language therapists have a wealth of knowledge and expertise and their sessions are full of practical ideas that can be carried out at home. Every session is personal and friendly and families taking part feel comfortable to share experiences due to the welcoming environment of each session."
