The Association for Research into Stammering in Childhood (ARSC) is committed to funding scientific research into the complex causes of stammering in, and the most effective treatments for, children and young adults.
ARSC was founded in 1991 by the late Dr Lena Rustin, an internationally recognised speech and language therapist, and Travers Reid, a successful businessman who has stammered all his life. ARSC is a registered charity and is based at the Michael Palin Centre for Stammering Children in London, England.
The Michael Palin Centre for Stammering Children was founded in 1993 as a national specialist centre. It is jointly funded by ARSC and the Islington Primary Care Trust (formerly the Camden and Islington Community Health Services NHS Trust).
