Amazing how early morning sun can make anything look better on your daily walk. You just have to walk with your eyes open and see the beauty.

Brilliant Striders walk today in the sunshine in the Churnet Valley. Thanks to Bob and Hilary for joining us. We promised cake, and boy did we deliver today, a lemon meringue pie as big as Dean’s head! Watch out for a Stamma Striders surprise at STAMMAFest 2024 🤫

Our Deputy CEO Kirsten Howells was on BBC Breakfast this morning, talking about the barriers people who stammer face when engaging with customer-facing organisations (think: cafes, banks, helplines), and how simple it is to enact small yet important changes to their processes. 🧵

Visited local Starbucks Woofferton nr Ludlow, & stammered. Wasn't asked my name, said it anyway, because that's who I am! Good eye contact from server. Not all stammerers live in the city, rural stammers matter too! Come on Starbucks UK engage with Stamma #StarbucksDayofAction

Wonderful day of action yesterday at the Starbucks just by Hanover Square in London. People who stammer ordering drinks in succession, and taking their time, to protest the ordering process at Starbucks. Calling for it to be more accessible and inclusive. #StarbucksDayofAction

“Sometimes the most powerful protest is simply refusing to hide who you are" Staff supportive and kind but one did try to finish someone's sentence whilst they were mid-stammer - training needed.
