The red-coated Toastmaster is a uniquely British
tradition, lending distinction to formal and semi-formal ceremonies,
events and celebrations. The modern Toastmaster offers the traditional
services of greeting and announcing guests and introducing speeches
and toasts, but combines these with the roles of advisor, organiser,
function liaison, linkman and diplomat.
Jane Burridge, The Lady Toastmaster,
is one of the very few professionally trained and accredited ladies
working in this field. Jane will advise on the correct procedure
in accordance with the accepted traditions of social order, protocol
and etiquette; she will act as a master of ceremonies in a formal
or informal manner; and she will co-ordinate the event on the day
so host and guests may relax, knowing that someone has an eye on
the clock, the formalities and the guests.
