What to expect during a meeting
The Manchester Stammering Community has been meeting in its current biweekly format since 2007, and has a heritage that traces back to at least the 1950s. Manchester is the only British city other than London to run two speech and language therapy training courses at distinct universities (University of Manchester and Manchester Metropolitan University).
Typically the moment will be when there is an audience, and the message being communicated is important to the speaker or the listener. It is not straightforward to understand how or why this occurs. For example, in many who stutter a startling feature is that during a stuttered moment they are able to make a fluent aside (e.g. “gosh, this is difficult!”) and then go right back to stuttering on the phrase which was previously being stuttered. This suggests that stuttering is best understood with reference to language and communication, rather than being explicable purely within the framework of speech-motor control.
