Thank you for sharing, James. It's always great to see stammering representation on TV and we loved hearing how inspirational this was for you - we need more!

[JAMES HEWLETT @hoffsports]

Those who know… incredible bravery to come out and go on national tv and speak knowing what might happen. @Semaken . I’ve never seen this interview before, but I wish I had 40 years ago, to give me the confidence to speak in public when I was young and scared. @stammer

Is it best to tell someone you stammer? If so, how?

Come to our free online workshop 'The Tell, The Throw & The Catch', Mon 23 June, 1pm. We'll explore the pros & cons, and what research tells us, to find a new way to think about mentioning stammering.
