The Youth Leadership Program which aims to build and develop confidence, public speaking and creative talents was the first time that the Toastmasters Club has held this event for a group with special needs and it was a great success. The program included developing skills in planning and managing meetings, practice speaking sessions and art and craft. Each participant delivered a speech on their favorite topic at the event in front of an audience including John Robertson MP for Blacktown, Sandra Sweetman President of the Toastmasters Club of Cumberland Forest, Shirley Childs, Past President of the Toastmasters Club of Cumberland Forest, showing off what they have achieved throughout the 8 week program. A huge thankyou goes to John Robertson, MP for Blacktown, Sandra Sweetman and Shirley Childs for all their support and training throughout the program and to the graduating clients for all their hard work and great presentations!
