Clarkston Speakers Club
Clarkston is part of the Association of Speakers Clubs of Great Britain and is an active speakers club that meets approximately every second Friday throughout the speaking season (Sep - Apr).
Our aim is to help you learn and become comfortable with the art of speaking in public. We do this in a friendly and supportive environment. In fact, you will enjoy the club just for the new friends you will make. Whether you are a complete novice through to a competent speaker wanting "safe" practice, we have something for you.
Most people have something worthwhile to say but keep it to themselves. We will help you overcome the barriers stopping you becoming a proficient public speaker.
Of all the unfair advantages you can give yourself in life, public speaking will bring you the quickest and richest rewards in career, self esteem and social standing.
The Association of Speakers Clubs - ASC
The Association of Speakers Clubs (ASC) has its origins in Toastmasters International, an American organisation formed by Ralph C. Smedley in 1924. The movement spread across the Atlantic in 1935, with the first British branch being formed in Southport. Development followed quickly throughout Scotland and England until 1971, when the British clubs decided to form a separate organisation and The Association of Speakers Clubs was formed. Since that date, ASC has grown into a national organisation with 145 Clubs throughout the England, Scotland and Wales.
