Action for Stammering Children is the UK charity for children and young people who stammer, their families, and the communities who support them.

We’re here to make sure that every child who stammers has the support, respect and confidence to live the life they want to lead.

We support and empower parents, caregivers and professionals; facilitate and

champion research; and campaign for changes in policy and societal attitudes.

My name is Sam and I have a TikTok account ‘Stammerexperiences’ where I help and inspire thousands of people who may have a stammer or anxiety. I push my self out of my comfort zone to experience different activities and meeting people. I love to help and support people as much as I can.

Action for Stammering Children contacted me to do the Brighton Marathon to raise funds for this worthwhile charity. This is my first marathon and is very daunting for me, but I am excited to start my training.

I hope everyone will donate what they can to support my journey.
