Fareham and Gosport's most welcoming Speakers Club
DO YOU FIND PUBLIC SPEAKING DAUNTING?
If so, you are not alone. All of our members and graduates felt the same way when they first came through our doors. However, they quickly discovered that their public speaking anxiety could be transformed into self-confidence, and the same could be true for YOU!
Find your voice and boost your confidence
Want to...
Improve your public speaking and/or leadership skills?
Get a new job or a promotion?
Gain the confidence to express yourself in meetings?
If any or all of these questions ring a bell with you, you’ve come to the right place. Solent Speakers Club has been helping people like you find their voice for more than 20 years.
We don't offer traditional public speaking classes in the way that a college does. Instead, our regular, twice-monthly meetings, provide a safe and supportive learning environment where you can learn and progress at your own pace.
"Toastmasters' unique blend of practice and constructive feedback delivers amazing results surprisingly quickly."
What kind of people join Solent Speakers?
Toastmasters is open to all sorts of people from 18 years and over. The one thing that unites us all is a desire to become better, more confident speakers, communicators, and leaders.
Whether you are a professional, a student, a stay-at-home parent or are retired, Toastmasters has plenty to offer you.
We help you discover how to:
Overcome your fear of speaking in front of groups
Become more persuasive and confident when giving presentations
Build on your existing skills by appreciating your strengths and learning how to be even better
We meet on the first and third Tuesday of each month in the Lysses House Hotel Fareham. There is an option to join on Zoom if you can't attend in person.
We gather at 7.15pm for a 7:30pm start and always finish by 9.30pm.
