title: Transferring skills--from south to north.
abstract: The primary aim of western-trained speech and language therapists (SLTs) working in the 'South' is not to train further SLTs but to transfer a range of practical skills to carers, health and education workers working directly with under-served populations. Considering current areas of service need in the UK, a model of primary health care has been applied to the western model, resulting in further discussion of potential applications to future SLT practice in the UK.
