Paul Tredgett is a Fellow of the Guild of Professional Toastmasters and as such maintains the highest standards of competence and professional integrity.

Paul says:

My aim as a Toastmaster is to meet the needs and demands of you as my clients, and to ensure that the pressure is taken off your shoulders and thus allowing you to enjoy the event you have organised without being burdened by the stress of the planning.

My role is to help you facilitate your event, whether it be a Wedding or a Masonic Ladies Festival or any of the other exciting function. I will offer advice and help not only with speeches, but with protocol and procedures. I will announce your guests, organise the wine taking and to be a noticeable presence at your function and solve any problems that may arise. I will be the oasis of calm when you are feeling stressed.

I have spent a lifetime in public service both in the military and in civilian life. I have worked with persons from all walks of life and all social positions, and have much experience of the hospitality industry.I have organised many functions for charities, weddings and formal gatherings, and that includes those for dignitaries and foreign royalty. Every different function is special and it gets my full attention and input.
