The Great Yarmouth Rotary Speakers Club was launched in March 2020,but like many organisiations the Pandemic meant that we had to hold our fortnightly meetings using the Zoom platform.  However we can now look forward to returning to our face to face meetings in July, presenting to a live audience is very important as our member’s progress on their public speaking journey

We are offering a Bursary Award to an individual who due to financial reasons is unable to cover the £110 annual subscription. An application form is available by visiting yarmouthspeakersclub.co.uk. All correspondence is processed in the strictest confidence and the applicant would be required to attend an interview via zoom and we would expect a level of commitment to the club for the 12 month period.

We work with our members to become effective speakers, good communicators whilst at the same time helping them to improve their leadership skills.  Through the Rotary connection we can help you build your social confidence and networking skills through workshops and support from outside speakers.

It has been a very difficult year for all of us especially those people seeking to gain employment or promotion at work and the Speakers Club can help you deliver an effective interview performance.  The prospect of giving a works presentation can be very daunting especially if you have little or no experience in planning a presentation covering all the relevant points, where timing is crucial.

All our members will be offered mentoring and we will work with you to put together a programme that suits your needs. We are conscious that there is a nucleus of people who want to find their voice whether for personal or social reasons or they want to make a speech for a very special occasion which could be a wedding or a eulogia

We work with the Toastmasters International training programme and you will have the opportunity to present a talk to a different audience namely a traditional Rotary Club or a Toastmasters Group. We have a diverse membership, encouraging personal and professional development and through your journey you will receive constructive feedback and support from other members.

We create a very friendly environment that brings an element of fun to public speaking where you will grow in confidence, inspire and motivate others, who are embarking on the same journey but for different reasons  If you would like to experience first hand how the club operates, then please pop along to one our fortnightly meetings . We meet on a Tuesday evening and the venue and future meeting dates can be located by visiting our website.

If you are running your own business and you would like to sponsor an employee then please contact us so that we can discuss a package that meets your requirements.  The Great Yarmouth Rotary Speakers Club is there to help you whether it’s for personal or business reasons and we need your support to make this club thrive and grow.
