Dear Bradford and Airedale Teaching Primary Care Trust (PCT),

Would you please send me details of Augmentative and alternative communication devices supplied/purchased by your trust, between 31st March 2006 and 1st April 2011. I would like the information broken down by both product name (So for example Dynavox Xpress, iPod touch with TapToTalk, BigMack) and by year. I would like information for both children and adults, but I don't require a breakdown by age.

2005/06

2 x Listen To Me
2 x Lightwriters
1 x Dynawrite
1 x Dynamo
1 x Falck Voice Amplifier
1 x Lions Speech Aid

2006/07

2 x Lightwriters
1 x mini Printer
2 x The Grid software
2 x Falck Voice Amplifiers
1 x Listen To Me
1 x Textphone

and this would do nicely for me.

I attempting to find out how many people who have poor or no speech have a speech aid, in particular electronic speech aids, and I would like to know how many have been supplied by the trust during the last five years.

Yours faithfully,

Dr Joseph Reddington

Dear Booth Barbara,

Absolutely great - of all the trusts I've made requests of - this was by far the most complete, most honest, least evasive and nicest response - Would you give me the name of your line manager so I can write a proper letter of thanks?

Yours sincerely,

Joe
