Welcome to the Devon and Exeter branch

The Devon and Exeter Branch supports the mission of the English-Speaking Union by assisting schools in the district that participate in the Public Speaking competition, Performing Shakespeare competition, and Schools’ Mace debating competition, all aimed at enhancing young people’s communication skills. New members are always welcome, and membership not only supports our educational initiatives but also offers volunteering opportunities. Additionally, members enjoy access to the facilities at the ESU’s headquarters, Dartmouth House, located in London’s Mayfair.
