LONDON — The Michael Palin Centre for Stammering presented the 2017 Joe Fulcher Award to Chaye Foster on Dec. 13 in London. The Joe Fulcher Award is given to a person who has bravely risen above the challenge of stuttering and is an example of excellence in the stuttering community and beyond.


During his more than 30 years of faithful service to the Stuttering Foundation, Joe Fulcher served in many diverse capacities, including Vice President, Assistant Secretary, Treasurer, and member of the annual Audit Committee. Joe’s dedication to his work with the Stuttering Foundation was an example to board and staff.


Joe had the privilege of working directly with Malcolm Fraser, the founder of the Stuttering Foundation, for many years. Malcolm thought highly of Joe’s financial oversight and planning abilities that greatly assisted the Stuttering Foundation in providing ongoing support and help to those who struggle with stuttering.


Joe Fulcher, who passed away on October 6, 2017, will continue to be remembered and honored with this wonderful award.

Chaye Foster, 15, was selected from the nominees by several people, including Stuttering Foundation Board Member Frances Cook, who said “Chaye was chosen because of the resilience and determination that she has shown in her commitment to the demands of therapy. It was clear that Chaye has understood for herself the challenges that she faced and that, with support, she has made really important changes that will stand her in good stead for the rest of her life.”


Stuttering Foundation President Jane Fraser presented the award together with actor and author Michael Palin. "Chaye's uncle also played an amazing role in Chaye's success," Jane said. "As Chaye's primary caregiver, he has fully committed to get her the assistance she needs. But getting Chaye where she needed to be was more than enough; she was ready and willing to do the hard work it took, all on her own!"
