Last month, we returned to Newry, Co. Down, Northern Ireland to hold our FIRST In-Person course in over 2 years. 11 New Students attended the course and they worked really hard over the 3 days. The parents of the under 18s also attended and they played an important and active part in this course in encouraging and helping the new students overcome their stutter. A great team effort!
Back to doing what we do best! Working hard on our stutter with face to face, in-person interactions.

It’s extremely hard for me to put into words what this programme has done for me.

The first time I spoke to my own dad on a telephone was after my first McGuire course.

What an amazing intensive McGuire Programme Hybrid Course we ran
Since joining The McGuire Programme I have attended numerous courses and improvement days throughout the UK to help with my speech which I have worked hard on. I practice every day so that I don’t fall back to how I was before joining the programme.
