Join us on Friday 13 December, 1pm-2pm, to hear from STAMMA, the national stammering charity, who will chat to us about how we can make healthcare environments more accessible, give top tips on talking with someone who stammers, and share information and support for adults and children who stammer.
Stammering and healthcare
You might be surprised to learn that over 1% of adults stammer, and around 8% of children stammer for at least a while. Yet healthcare can often be a difficult environment for people who stammer. Talked over, hung up on, being misdiagnosed with anxiety, or refused medication because a healthcare professional mistakenly thinks the person is lying or unsure when they stammer on their own name.
Bring your questions and your stories, or just come along to listen. Suitable for the public and professionals. Everybody welcome!
