"I have been coming to TALK for a number of years now & it has improved my speech.
I enjoy the meeting as I don't usually got to clubs but talk has been a great befit & fun for me."

 

"I wanted to say how much I like TALK, not always but if I didn't like going I wouldn't come.
I've been coming for 16 years. Coming here is company."

 

I love the opportunity to engage with others and it gives me confidence to do so when I am out and about
