A TRIO hopes to prove it is all talk.

Jayaraj Nambiar, Elaine Davis and Bill Marwick won a Craven Speakers Club local topics competition.

Now they will represent the club in the annual topics contest staged by the Yorkshire Dales Area of the Association of Speakers Clubs.

The event takes place at St Peter’s Methodist Church, Cross Hills, at 1.30pm on Saturday, February 3.

The public is invited to attend.

Competitors have to talk for three minutes on a ‘surprise’ subject.

The club meets on alternate Mondays at the Soroptimists Rooms, Otley Street, Skipton, and welcomes new members.

The next meeting is on Monday. Call 01535 665278 for details.
