One Voice is a support group for UK based users of communication aids and their families. The principal focus is on high-tech electronic voice output communication aids (VOCA's) - vocabularies and their organisation; adaptation to specific user requirements; access and operational issues; service, supply and support and training issues; page exchange; tips and advice; social and community issues relating to AAC use; educational and curriculum issues.

Generally high-tech aids are seen as part of a wider communication strategy involving symbol-based communication books and boards, eye-pointing boards, and signing. Discussion of these topics is encouraged especially but not exclusively where they are used in conjunction with high-tech aids. The group however is not intended, however, for support of people who solely use signing.

The group welcomes users of "Low Tech" aids and their families. Also Support Workers, Teachers Therapists, Suppliers Advisors.
