Speaker of the Year 2010

The annual Speaker of the Year Dinner will be held this year in the Midland District. The Speaker of the Year is to be Nick Owen and the event will take place on Saturday November 6th 2010.

Nick Owen is currently the main presenter on the regional news programme BBC Midlands Today.

Nick has worked in regional and national TV since the late Seventies. He came to national prominence in 1983 as one of the first faces to appear on breakfast television in Britain.

Nick moved to BBC One to co-present the popular Good Morning with Anne and Nick from 1992 until May 1996 – a total of 600 programmes. In 2006, he was awarded the Baird Medal by the Royal Television Society.

Nick’s chosen charity is St Mary’s Hospice, Selly Oak, Birmingham.

Changes to the website

Happy New Year Speakers!

I have made a couple of changes to the site for the New Year.

  • I have removed the Topics Wall page as it was not being used and, more importantly ...
  • I have added an ‘Advice’ page where we can post advice and guidance for public speaking. I have started by including a great new site from Keith Davis called “Easy Public Speaking” ... if anyone else has good advice or tips please do send them to me by e-mail
