Happy New Year!
And just like that, another Toastmasters year has come to an end! Thank you to everyone who supported the Newtown club through the 2018/19 year including our outgoing District Officers Sarah Davy and Glen Pearce. It was lovely to see everyone join in the celebrations on Wednesday and look back at the last 12 months.
Newtown Toastmasters is now 2 years old and has been doing plenty of walking and talking! We've had Halloween and Xmas-themed meetings, we've hosted an Area Contest, as well as running community workshops to achieving milestone DTM's in the club! It's certainly been a roller coaster of a year! Let's keep the momentum going and start the 2019/20 new year with a bang! Our next meeting is Wed 10th July at the Centre! Hope to see you all there!

I am an odd number. Take away a letter and I become even. What number am I?

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
