Father Patrick Lagan, who went to St Patrick's College in Maghera, struggled to say certain words as a boy because of his stammer. He's now based at St Eugene's Cathedral in Derry, where he officiates at weddings and funerals. Northern Ireland's five health trusts have told Âé¶¹Éç News that about 600 people are currently being treated for a stammer. So, what's it like on a personal level? Our reporter Dean McLaughlin has been speaking to Fr Lagan.
