Jane Powell

Jane Powell is CEO of STAMMA, the British Stammering Association, which scooped three wins in the Third Sector Awards in 2020. She joined the British Stammering Association in 2018, steering the organization through a rebranding and introducing a new 5-year strategic plan focusing on increasing the organization's reach, service provision, and public messaging.

Prior to this, she founded the national charity CALM, the campaign against living miserably, and a helpline and webchat service for men and boys. She grew the organization from a first year’s income of £12K to over £1.2mill when she left, creating a campaign using strong and creative campaigns and messages which smashed the taboo around the subject of male suicide and brought in Lynx and the Royals.
