Who are the ASC Youth Panel?
The ASC Youth Panel was started in 2015 to enable young people who stammer to have their say. It is a collective of bright young stammerers from across the UK working on projects to raise awareness about stammering and to celebrate differences.
They aim to use the support and influence of the education system to further project their voice and presence, and begin their mission to create safer, more natural spaces for young people who stammer.
Our Youth Panel meet around five times in the year to discuss current projects and ideas on raising awareness of stammering in their local areas. They have been busy working on a new website encouraging more young people across the UK to sign up and become Youth Ambassadors through their Facebook page. After doing so, young people can join the conversation and have their say on topics about stammering and the issues they face.
