The course is designed to give all UNISON activists the knowledge, confidence and skills required to write and deliver effective speeches. This course will be a mixture of theory, practice and will involve analysing and understanding lessons from speeches from history – from Martin Luther King Jr. via Tony Benn to Michelle Obama.

The course will help activists to:

• understand how an effective speech is constructed
• practice writing speeches that convey our messages and values – and inspire people to action
• develop the confidence to deliver speeches in different contexts – from branch meetings to national conferences

There is a charge of £50 to branches for this course.
