Training Service For Stammering

Our Training Service helps make sure your organisation's ways of working are suitable for people who stammer.

Whatever sector your organisation sits in, you're coming into contact with people who stammer. That could be your staff, customers, service users, members, clients, patients or passengers who stammer.

So often systems and ways of working have been set up without any thought for people who stammer or who have other speech differences. From recruitment processes, to call handlers in customer service centres and the way meetings are run.

Maybe you're just unsure about how to react when you meet someone who stammers. How do you help? Should you say something? Should you not?

We can help. Together we can ensure stammering is part of your organisation's work around diversity, equality and inclusion.
