While it is true that speech and language therapy can continue to make a positive difference in older children and adults, there is no 'cure' for stammering.

People who stammer, parents, or anyone else can contact local Support Service to discuss help available and contact details.
There is some confusion about the difference between "Stammering" and "stuttering". The fact is that they are the same. "Stammering" is more often used in the UK and Ireland. "Stuttering" is usual in the United States.
Some people consider the phrase "person who stammers" (or PWS) or "child who stammers" to be preferable to "stammerer". Stammering is something a person does. It is by no means the most important thing about the person, let alone who he or she is. Whilst some people who stammer and others object to the term "stammerer", there are other people who stammer who are comfortable with the term and will commonly use it themselves.
