We provide support & information to people who stammer + tackle the stigma.

Story

We're creating a better world for people who stammer. Committed to tackling public perceptions of what it means to stammer and remove the shame, stigma, intolerance and misunderstanding experienced by people who stammer. Through our website (stamma.org), Helpline (0808 802 0002 open weekdays 10am-noon and 6pm-8pm) and support of local meetup and self-help groups, we provide information and assistance to people who stammer as well as those close to them. Join us - stamma.org

Money raised in the 10K a day fundraiser will be used to set up a new local stammering group in Belfast to offer information and support specifically to young people that stammer as well as their parents. This group will be affiliated with the British Stammering Association (stamma.org) and we hope to have our first meeting this spring. The group will also offer funding for private speech therapy or other support to those who cannot get the help they need through the NHS

25% of the money raised will go to the British Stammering Association to support their work creating a better world for people who stammer across the UK.
