Greetings fellow Toastmasters!
If you’ve been wondering whether or not to come to the District Conference on the 5th of November, please watch this message from District Director Vanessa King about the Hal of Fame. We hope you’ll join us to celebrate the achievements and contributions of our members.
Fellow members,

This will be our first one day conference. It’s jam packed with workshops, a keynote, contest finals and our District Council Meeting. You’ll need to purchase a Daytime Ticket to attend. However remember that attending the District Council Meeting is FREE.
Once the day ends, the night begins. This is when dinner and dancing will take place. To attend, purchase an Evening Ticket.

Information has been shared on our Facebook page Toastmasters International UK & Ireland and on Twitter @ToastmastersUKI.
Our very own Program Quality Director, Pedro Casillas has taken on the role of Conference Director.
The conference team would welcome support from members. There’s plenty of opportunities for you to get involved. Volunteers to help during the conference are always welcomed, please make yourself known to the team in advance.
Is training a skill you’d like to develop for yourself? Would you like more opportunity to share your knowledge and enthusiasm with those less experienced? Then, your Toastmasters club and Toastmasters more widely needs you!
In May 2005 I attended a three Day Speech Therapy course with the Starfish Project which is a non – profit making organisation that helps people who stammer.
During those three days, amongst other things, I was taught a breathing technique that helps me to control my stammer. It will not make my stammer go away but it gives me control over something that has controlled me since I was a young boy.
First let me start with a thank you to Porthcawl Speakers for inviting me to their fantastic charter dinner evening. A great event to celebrate their club chartering. Already there are photos on Facebook on the night.
This month launches the club growth initiative and join me in welcoming four new clubs to our district.
