Super article from mentee Lauren about how the ASC mentoring scheme is helping mentees age 18-25 who stammer. If you're 18-25 in the UK and have a stammer, this free mentoring scheme is worth checking out!

Proud to have contributed to this international research project into the #genetic causes of #stuttering. Felt emotional sharing my family tree & wondering which of my ancestors also had a stutter like me. I know about my cousin Chris & possibly my uncle Peter. Perhaps even my mother. #ancestry

With updates themed around 'People', 'Impact' & 'Events', we hope there's something for everyone in our latest #newsletter. Enjoy! #OKToStutter #OKToStammer #allies

Applications already received from people who #stutter & #alllies from 9 countries & 5 continents. 100% of interviewees providing feedback on our previous global Practice Interview event in Oct '24 "now feel more confident about their next interview with a stutter!" #impact #OKToStutter

Interviewing with a #stutter is tough! That's why I'm thrilled that 50 Million Voices are launching our 8th Global Practice Interview event - for people who stutter & for #allies and employers keen to attract and support stuttering talent!
