What You Say About Us

“  We would like to say a very big `Thank You` to you all for your support, in such a caring and patient way over the past two weeks.  We are extremely grateful to have been given this opportunity.  The Michael Palin Centre is a very special place.”

“I think I’ve changed a lot since the first day I came to see you.  I mean, I’m a lot more laidback about my stutter, I simply let things be. If I happen to block on a word, then I don’t worry about it, because I’ve realised that nine times out of ten, people are focusing more on what you’re saying instead of how you’re trying to say it.”

“The workshop has impacted on everything they do, and will do in therapy going forward. The way and skill with which you encourage and incorporate participant involvement is amazing – it seems easy and natural, but is of course an incredible art.”

“My supervision sessions with you were very helpful on a personal level and especially in terms of being able to seek advice about the more challenging clients.”

“When I first came to the MPC my stuttering was really bad.  After a few years my speech is really good. Now I’m not afraid to ask people for something.  Now I talk to my friends without stuttering. I thank all the staff for making my dreams come true”.

"I can't tell you how much more confident I now feel in an area I used to feel incredibly anxious about - thank you. I have enjoyed the training immensely and found your input so valuable. I can't wait to go back and try out my new skills!"
