WELCOME TO SEASIDE SaLT CIC

We are an independent non-profit organisation providing speech and language therapy for children and young people aged 0–18 years across Scarborough, Whitby and Ryedale.

Our experienced team supports children with a wide range of speech, language and communication needs, offering personalised, child-centred therapy.

Rooted in Scarborough, we understand the challenges families face — from long NHS waiting lists to the financial pressures that can make private therapy feel out of reach.

That’s why we are committed to making therapy accessible, timely and supportive for our local community.

Take a look at our new initiative The Light House Scheme You choose what you pay for your child’s speech and language therapy — 10%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% or 100% of our current fees— whatever works for your family.

So get in touch, tell us about your child and what you’re looking for — it’s a free and no-obligation conversation.

We look forward to supporting you and your child or young person on their communication journey.
