‘I decided to talk about my stammer’
ý Radio 5 Live and Newsround presenter Hayley Hassall speaks about her stammer and the challenges she faced with it at school.
“Through primary school I was bullied about it,” she said.
Hayley also said that a speech in front of fellow high school pupils helped her overcome her stammer.
“It’s not something I’m afraid of and it’s not going to be something that stops me,” she said.
