I’m a coach who works full time in academy football and have achieved this with a stutter - this is something I am very proud of due to the simple fact that what you say and how you say it is vital in youth development IMO 🗣

I am looking for work, and open to opportunities as I transition out of football coaching and into pastures new.
I am hoping the power of social media can help as I explore the next stages of my career.
DMs are open if you’ve got an exciting opportunity!

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. 🧵

Really enjoyed last week’s @CambsStammering & @stammaeducators self help group meeting with special guest Stephen Duffy aka @CoachwhoStutter We chatted about the pros and cons of being a coach/teacher with a #stammer and if having a stammer can make you a better communicator
I’m delighted to say that this month we have another special guest and because of the Euros, it has a football theme as we welcome Steve Duffy, a professional football coach at Birmingham City. You might also know Steve as The Coach who Stutters @CoachwhoStutter

Fill out our survey so we can fill up both cups, and help us make space to stammer.
ALT A graphic with 2 coffee cups, the one with people who stammer is filled to two thirds with 203 responses, and the one with people who dont is filled to under a third, with 86 responses.

Really proud to share this video for @stammer#ISAD23, and our first project at Calma Films!

People who stammer should be given space to talk, whether they are ordering a coffee, booking a GP appointment... or returning a coffin.
We're pleased to launch our new ad, developed with the fantastic folks at @VMLYR. Watch, share... and DON'T JUMP IN.

Today I turn 27 YEARS OLD. Which means 11 YEARS AGO I was on Educating Yorkshire. I am so fortunate to live life sharing the power of teachers. I am proud to be someone who stammers, something one teacher helped me to accept in the classroom. Thank you to everyone for the continuous support #EducatingYorlshire#PowerOfTeaching#ThankYou
