Wellbeing and Nana naps

Our first meeting of October got off to a fantastic start with an inspiring welcome from our President, Emma. A special shout-out to Ashley, who took on her first role as Sergeant at Arms, and Estelle, who did a brilliant job as Toastmaster for the first time. Our theme for the evening was wellbeing, close to Estelle’s heart and especially fitting with World Mental Health Day coming up this week.

We enjoyed two excellent prepared speeches. Krystyna delivered an extended speech on Leadership Without a Leash, while Geoff demonstrated how to make a complex topic informative and accessible. Both are seasoned Toastmasters, and it certainly showed.

Our Table Topics session brought plenty of memorable moments, with many of our guests getting involved in questions around our theme of wellbeing. We heard about Kerry’s famous Nana naps, while Andrew, a first-time visitor, treated us to a wonderfully structured and engaging story about relaxing with his guitar and morning coffee.

We hope to see you at our next meeting on Wednesday 21st October.
