Falkirk Orators is a fun, friendly public speaking club based in Falkirk. We meet twice a month to practice and develop our public speaking skills, on the second and fourth Wednesday of the month at 7pm.
Falkirk Orators is a new club founded in April 2011 in response to demand from local people.
We are affiliated to Toastmasters International, a non-profit organisation with over 12,500 clubs worldwide. Toastmasters International was founded in 1924 by Dr Ralph C Smedley. The group (all men at the time) met in the basement of the YMCA in Santa Ana California, USA.
This club was formed to ‘afford practice and training in the art of public speaking and in presiding over meetings’. The group named themselves Toastmasters.
Today Toastmasters International gives its members the OPPORTUNITY TO DEVELOP AND IMPROVE THEIR PUBLIC SPEAKING ABILITIES through local club meetings, training seminars and speech contests.
Guests are always welcome FREE of charge and only participate if they really want to do so. For a report on the last meeting click here
