Caint gan eagla – Talk without fear, ISA’s Conference Day takes place on Saturday April 28th 2012.

Our conference day provides an opportunity for people who stutter (of all ages) and their families to come together and talk about stuttering. Anyone who has an interest in stammering is welcome to come along and take part.

The day is FREE to ISA members. If you’re not a member of ISA yet, you can attend the day and join ISA for €20.
