Overcoming my stammer

Available for over a year

14 year-old Ben from Shrewsbury used to struggle with a debilitating stammer. 鈥淎t times, people were unkind about it,鈥 he recalls. But Ben refused to let it define him. With the help of a speech therapist, he gradually built the confidence to speak fluently again. Reflecting on his journey, Ben told Adam Green, "I鈥檓 just really proud of myself, to be honest. A few years ago, I couldn鈥檛 even form proper sentences and now I鈥檓 sitting here, speaking on a radio station."
