Stamma At Work

Hope you're all having a lovely weekend! There's been a bit of a change in our fortnightly schedule. Our next Coffee and Chat will be on Saturday 14th May (at 11am at the Earl of Mercia). We will then meet on 4th June, but will go back to meeting every fortnight after that! 😊☕

We're celebrating 44 years of our campaigns and community by fundraising — because people who #stammer still face discrimination and ignorance. 📢 Help us create a world where no-one judges us on our stammer or the way we choose to deal with it. Visit ow.ly/8TJB50IP0xl

Next face-to-face/online meeting of the #Cambridge Self Help Group for Adults who Stammer, Thurs, 5 May, 7.30 - 9pm, University Centre. Please DM for more info or zoom details. @stammer @CambridgeDSC @SU_Disabled @Patrick1992C stamma.org/connect/cambri…

Do not try this at home. ⛽ Find out when we'll be in a @PearlAndDean cinema near you at stamma.org/AtTheMovies. #NoDiversityWithoutDisfluency

@ellagreggSLT @stammer Hi Ella, there is the Women Who Stammer group fortnightly on a Monday? Other online events can be found here: stamma.org/connect/online… Or I'd love to discuss setting up a group in their area if they contact mail@stamma.org - thank you! Charlotte

@stammer hello 👋 could you/anyone advise of any adult support groups that are not on a Tuesday or Thursday evening as adult in mind attends college course on these evenings. TYIA, Ella

Lovely to speak to @lesleymccabeFM on @BBCSurrey about the impact of having a POTUS who stammers - it's an exciting day where having a #stammer is no barrier to the highest office of the free world. So it’s not wrong to stammer - it’s the way we talk.

Phyllis Edwards thought she'd have to go through life being the only person she knew who stammered. That was until she came across our @stammer Facebook support group. Communities are powerful places ❤️ stamma.org/your-voice/thr… #Stammer

First Ever Webchat Service Launched For People Who #Stammer As Dysfluency Increases Under #Lockdown. @stammer research shows 38% of members are stammering more & nearly 58% of parents saying their child is stammering more stamma.org/news-features/…

Get ready for tonight’s quiz for @stammer hosted by @bexlefort! Can you figure out the cocktail, the punchline, the sequence, the composer? If that’s got you in the mood, you can still sign up to join in! cafdonate.cafonline.org/12953#!/Donati…

People who #stammer or #stutter! Did you go to university? Could you share your experiences and reflections in this short survey? @NaheemBashir is gathering anonymous data to use in a conference presentation and challenge the support in #HE forms.office.com/Pages/Response…

Don’t let a stammer stop you from voting in #GE2109 Although saying your name can be a major hurdle for people who #stammer you can use your polling card or ask a friend to help confirm your identity stamma.org/news-features/…

The students are taking turns reading a book, one by one, up and down the rows. “I could count down how many paragraphs, and I’d memorize it, because I found it easier to memorize than look at the page and read the word. I’d pretend to be reading,” Biden says

Kate, who spoke at our research event, did an interview for Radio 4 this morning about her research into stammering. Listen back on BBC Sounds and check out her slides from her talk with us here - actionforstammeringchildren.org/research-panel…

“Anger, rage, humiliation,” he says. His speech becomes staccato. “A feeling of, uh—like I’m sure you’ve experienced—it just drops out of your chest, just, like, you feel … a void.” Joe Biden talks about his #stammer #stutter theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…

Just had confirmed that we have new #Stamma posters going live across the country featuring @Scroobiuspipyo, @owensheers, @GeorgeSaagi, @NatMort___ and @kr1shna. If you see any, please take a picture and share. They'll only be up today.

Wonderful way to celebrate #ISAD2019 and #Istammer. What are you doing to celebrate #ISAD2019?
