The beginning of a new year is a time of reflection for everyone, who sit and think “what kind of year did I have?”
For us at Liverpool Speakers, 2018 was a very good year. We’ve had a year of successful meetings, listened to some great speeches and heard some very entertaining impromptu speeches. We’ve grown as a club, having added several new members throughout the year.
The club has also been very well represented in the ASC contests. Club Vice-President John got to the national finals for the Topics and Evaluation contests, and Matt has qualified for the district Speech competition.
But the beginning of a new year is also a time to look forward. After all, what is a resolution if not a wish for the year ahead?
So, what does the year ahead hold in store for Liverpool Speakers Club?
Well, we want to build on the work we did in 2018, and then some more! We want to grow further as a club, develop more speakers and get more people involved in some of the club roles.
We also want to vary our meetings, adding in some special nights for debating, reading and anything else we can think of.
We also want to engage more with both the wider ASC community and with others. If you have any questions, comments or suggestions then please let us know. You can get in touch via social media or through this website.
We also want to wish all of you a very happy, healthy and successful new year, and we hope to see you all at a meeting sometime this year!
I can thoroughly recommend joining Liverpool speakers club to anyone who, like me, has avoided public speaking situations in the past. Experienced members provide a truly supportive environment in gaining new skills and confidence to speak effectively in business or social situations.
Come along and see for yourself at one of our meetings.
