In an ever-digital world of Zoom socials and Teams meetings, it can be hard to disclose that you #stammer.
We've put together a range of Video Chat Backgrounds and Email Sign-Offs to make life a little easier. 💻

This #isad2022 @stammer is calling for the #RightToStutter and stammering is accepted, people who stammer are represented and that equal access is given ie in oral exams, buying goods +services, ringing for a GP appointment...
See stamily.org/declarationright…

Anyone who spent yesterday stuck in a car: pls do consider getting a bike. I can’t tell you the sheer joy of feeling massively smug while you get fit and save the planet as you whizz past the traffic.

I am reminded of a quote that I once read which said that 99% of motherhood is wandering around muttering FFS under your breath and turning off lights.

Charity role >> I was so lucky to attend a course with the @ascstammering as a teenager. They taught me not to be ashamed of my #stammer but how to use all my communication skills. This isn't just speech therapy, it's life coaching. Wonderful charity.
We are recruiting for a new company secretary to sit on the board of trustees. If you would like to support our small, dedicated Charity then please apply here: buff.ly/391ZSuA

1/2 The power of continuous improvement. Feeling energised that my team are embracing CI as much as me. We just delivered an epic programme, but to leave it there would be a mistake. So, we're doing a lessons learned review: asking ourselves and our customers what we did well...

If every stammerer who “passes” as a fluent person is a success story, an inspiration, then what does that say about the rest of us who fail to meet that standard?

Hyperacusis is a decreased sound tolerance. All sounds seem loud, all of the time. It can also be painful. How many of you have or had it? @RNID @BritishTinnitus
ALT do you know what is hyperacusis?

...It is above the left ear, and it processes the language you hear, and assembles some key words for use in your spoken response; so in terms of the stress, think slow broadband connections and busy working day with deadlines!
Dr Claire-Louise Partridge retweeted
I find it takes a bit of time to "acclimatise" to some else's dysfluency, but then I just hang with it. I think the stress, if any, is related to wernicke's area in the brain, which is key to conversational speech...

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.
