"Culture and Uniqueness" was the theme of our meeting last night. With some still on holiday, we were smaller in number, but ready to rock for another year!

Some of us have been talking about what makes Newtown Toastmasters special, and we explored this during Table Topics. Wellbeing was a common thread during the prepared speeches - we learned about Mindfulness, Sleep and how skills from Toastmasters can help in difficult times. The very thorough evaluations were appreciated, too.

Thanks, everyone, for participating - see you on Wednesday 23 January :)
