Speaker training days

From time to time the Vegetarian Society organises training days for its speakers and cookery demonstrators: some are suitable for beginners. If you fancy being actively involved with promoting vegetarianism and don't know where to start, then our beginners course could be for you.

Unless otherwise stated, all courses are free and take place at the Society's headquarters in Cheshire. You will be expected to go on our speakers register after completing the course. As space is limited, priority will be given to members of the Vegetarian Society and people already on our speakers list.

At a typical speaker training day attendees can expect to meet relevant members of the Communications and Information and Research Teams, watch a basic food samples presentation and cookery demonstration, and learn more about how the speaker system works. We'll look at the Vegetarian Society resources (a full set will be available to take home) and presentation skills will be explored before everyone gets an opportunity to make their own spoken presentation to the group. The day will also allow for question and answer sessions and include lunch and other refreshments.

If you would like to be included on an email list to be notified of the next training day, please contact the Local Network Co-ordinator: local@vegsoc.org
