Paul Cann is raising money for The Dominic Barker Trust
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

The Bristol Half Marathon 2008 · 14 September 2008 ·

Dom’s Fund was set up in 1997 in memory of Dominic Barker, a persistent stammerer. We fund research into stammering, to develop effective support for people who stammer and their families. We particularly support research with practical outcomes and training of speech and language practitioners.

Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I really hope you will want to support the work of this Trust, which is striving to help people who stammer and have associated difficulties in communication.  It was set up in memory of Dominic Barker, a highly intelligent and able young man for whom the burden of coping with a stammer was too much, and who took his own life as a result.

I think so many of us take for granted our ease of communication.  I certainly do.  And perhaps stammering is not seen as the fundamental problem it is, because it is not so dramatic or apparently urgent as a need.  Yet what could be more fundamental than our ability to talk to our fellow human beings ?

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Dominic Barker Trust gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!

Thank you ever so much

Paul
