Janet Gross-Niklaus

Janet has been a member of ITC since 1972. She joined mainly because she lacked confidence but she was looking for mental stimulation. I have had bothand am now glad to be able to put something back into an organisation that has given me so much pleasure and enjoyment, and many new friends. Since joining the Mid Cheshire Toastmistress Club she held office at all levels up to Regional President. It is what she has accomplished outside ITC that she is proud of. Things she would never have tried without the support of her club. She has been secretary for a local charity and currently the treasurer for a steering committee trying to form a local shop mobility group in her local town of Congleton. This has stood me in good stead to work with two other club members on the POWERtalk Short Course in my area.
