Testimonials

Speak Out is a warm and inviting environment, at Speak Out my writing has flourished, and I feel I have gained both confidence in my writing and myself. It is very enduring to learn the process of making a magazine and to witness the final product.”

Erin Hickey

Speak Out has been a brilliant place for me to explore my creativity and improve skills. I have met new people, built new relationships and also gained experiences such as being on an interview panel that I had never had the opportunity to do before.

Amelia Wilson

Speak out is a great group for making friends and learning to cooperate on such a creative project. Every meeting is filled with new and exciting opportunities to develop my writing and teamwork skills.

Olivia Hall

Being a member of Speak Out means a sense of community, and the powerful feeling of being truly heard. We're constantly learning, questioning, striving and creating - Speak Out fosters both a sense of independence and a strong team spirit.
