I founded Bradford Speaks in late 2016 with the intention of helping people develop their communication skills and in 2020 Bradford Speaks chartered with Toastmasters International. I had feared and suffered when asked to speak in public in the past. After attending a training session in 2011 I went on to compete in a public speaking competition in Europe. Now I love it and more importantly I love seeing people join Bradford Speaks and within a short period of time a change in them, their confidence grows and their careers start to take off.
