Along with their parents, they embark on a unique, intensive course at the Michael Palin Centre for Stammering Children.
Over two emotional weeks, the kids open up about their fears and frustrations whilst learning techniques to help with their fluency. This is also a significant journey for the parents, who learn more about themselves and their children than they could have imagined.
