HELP US CREATE LONG LASTING CHANGE

The need to be heard is one of the most basic yet potent needs we have as social beings. How many times a day do you speak to others? Order a coffee, book an appointment or introduce yourself?

Imagine if people laughed when you spoke, told you to hurry up or thought you were drunk.

People who stammer face daily barriers, hurtful or thoughtless responses and even discrimination in the most routine interactions.

Every organisation needs to be accessible to people who stammer. From employment practices to how the public can order or return a purchase or use their service.

Help us dismantle barriers, educate the public and fight discrimination. Help us normalise stammering so that people who stammer are accepted, represented in the media, given extra time when phoning services and in oral exams, and aren't excluded by voice activated systems.

This June, my family and I will supporting this amazing fundraiser by walking and running every day with a shared target of 300 miles in total. Thank you for any support you feel able to give!
