Please read and share this Top 10 list of DLD Questions, co-produced with an amazing group of contributors. These priorities can be used to shape research and funding applications to ensure that they reflect the needs and concerns of people living with DLD.

This set of co-produced priority research questions - should help people to target their applications for funding. It took me 4 years to gain funding! Hopefully a cohesive evidence base, fit to support people with #DevLangDis across the lifespan, can now be built 👏

Ah, thank you Jo. We hope you will find a question you would like to research - if you are not already doing so!!

Thank you for your support with the projec, Stephen. We couldn’t have done it without you! Lucy
