Communication Matters has commissioned Dr May Agius (PhD) to update its Quality Service Standards for AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication).
We would like to hear from our members as we progress this project.
About Quality Service Standards
The standards help guide how communication support is provided across the UK, including support at home, in education, in the workplace, and in the community.
This update aims to reflect current practice and ensure the standards are shaped by the experiences of those who use and deliver AAC.
We invite responses from:
- AAC users
- families and carers
- professionals, services, and organisations
The questionnaire explores:
- how communication is supported
- access to AAC services
- support across different life stages
- what good communication support looks like in practice.
Your feedback will help identify what is working well, where there are gaps, and what needs to improve. The findings will be used to co-produce updated standards. The questionnaire is designed for AAC users, their families and for professionals and organisations.
If support or an alternative way to take part is required, this can be facilitated.

Ethical approval has been considered via Communication Matters internal policies.
