Help us end the phone call nightmares
Campaign by Stamma (RCN 1089967, Scotland SC038866)
Help fund our campaign to end the nightmare of mishandled calls, getting hung up on, talked over and misunderstood. So that in the future children and young people no longer grow up in a hostile, stammer-unfriendly world.

Story

For over 40 years, I have lived with a stammer. Throughout that time, I have experienced moments of shame, embarrassment, and frustration — That’s why I am passionate about ensuring people who stammer feel empowered, accepted, and know that they belong. No one should ever feel limited or defined by the way they speak.

I am proud to support STAMMA, the national charity for people who stammer. STAMMA works tirelessly to change how society views stammering — tackling shame and stigma, raising awareness, and promoting true inclusion. Over the next five years, STAMMA aims to challenge every organisation to become accessible to people who stammer — helping schools, businesses, and public services to expect stammering, plan for it, and respond better.

To achieve this vision, STAMMA needs to grow its training, services, and support network — and every contribution makes a difference.

Whatever you can give will help STAMMA to build a more understanding world for everyone who stammers.
