Whilst there is no real substitute for face-to-face meetings, and the social interaction that flows from these, one advantage to societies of using Zoom for their regular meetings is that they are no longer constrained to engaging a speaker within reasonable travelling time of their venue.

With Zoom they can select the talk they want, no matter where the speaker might live.

This is well illustrated by the talks I currently have booked:

Probus clubs in West Sussex and Surrey, Women's Institutes in Stratford-upon-Avon, Shropshire and Sheffield, a Rotary Club in Kent, and U3A branches in Kent and Shropshire.

All my talks, all 18 of them, are available as virtual presentations complete with a full Power Point slide show.

If this is something your organisation might be considering, but don't know where to start, please get in touch with me and I will be only too happy to guide you through the process, with no obligation to book one of my talks.
