People declare war on their enemies. People who stammer declare war on their biggest enemy – their stammer.

This winter many brave individuals – a doctor intern, a social worker, a couple of college students, and many working professionals descended into New Delhi from all over India to beat their stammers. Their only hope was to get the voice they never had.

Bengaluru is a very special place. That is where the McGuire India Programme started five years ago. This summer, we saw the largest course to date and lots of smiles on peoples faces.

14 individuals – a pair of teenage twins, 3 high school students, a college student, and 8 working professionals descended into Bengaluru from all over India to beat their stammers. Their only hope was to get the voice they never had.

On a recent news article illustrating UK-India ties, Hindustan Times, a leading Indian newspaper recognized Matthew Richardson from The McGuire Programme for his continued efforts in transforming lives of people who stammer in India.

Well deserved Matthew. Thank you for your incredible support to people across the world.
