It is a place where a Person/People Who Stammers (PWS) can meet with other PWS.
When a PWS goes to such a meeting, they can both give and receive support from
other PWS.

A PWS can take either an active or a passive role at a meeting, either leading
discussion, contributing to discussion, or just listening to what is said. Also,
as a group member, they can take an active or passive role in arranging future
group meetings and/or future group activities.

Group meetings are a place where PWS can discuss a wide range of topics, from
stammering to therapy and various life experiences.  Group meetings can also be
a place where there is a guest speaker, with a question-and-answer session at
the end. The guest speaker sets the theme for the rest of the meeting.

Group meetings should also be a place for fun.  A budding writer could write a
small play, which include some of the dreaded activities of using a phone,
attending an interview and other such awkward scenarios.

The group could meet at some social event.  Possibly a meal, a dance, a picnic,
or whatever seems appropriate in your city.

If the group is a large group, it could stay as a large group for some of the
meeting and split up into smaller groups for the rest of the time.  Some PWS
might find it easier to start with to talk in a smaller group. Over a period of
time, talking in a larger group may become easier. The composition of the group
would need to be decided by the group.

Experience has shown in other existing groups that it is always useful and
beneficial in a number of ways if there is a trained stammering professional
(SLT/SLP) who can attend many of the meetings.  There is a possibility that parents
or partners may wish to attend some of the meetings.

As the confidence of the group grows, they might wish to host a meeting for
various groups of people (employers, hospital staff, civil servants, friends and
family, the general public).  At these hosted meetings, the main thrust of the
meeting would be to inform the group about stammering and makes them more aware
of various issues relating to stammering.
