Allen Stockel - The Professional Toastmaster and
Master of Ceremonies
Allen has lived and worked in Devon for the past 32 years and now
regards himself as a true Westcountryman! He is
married with two grown up daughters, one of whom is a professional
soprano and harpist, working widely in the wedding and social engagement
field, largely in Devon and Somerset.
Allen is readily available to work as your Toastmaster
and Master of Ceremonies anywhere in the Westcountry, whether this is
for your wedding or other social engagement, and would consider working
further afield as may be required.
To this end he would also be happy to provide these services for
your special occasion elsewhere in the United Kingdom.
As Father to
two girls, and now Grandfather to two little boys, Allen has developed a
kind and patient nature, a ready smile and an engaging sense of humour,
and it has always been his custom to work closely with his clients to
represent their needs and aspirations.
Allen's
training with the English Toastmasters Association has equipped him with
an eye for detail and a way of adapting himself to suit the occasion.
He will calmly ensure that hosts and guests all enjoy the day or event,
and you can be assured and confident that everything will run smoothly,
enhancing your special day and leaving you to enjoy your celebrations in
the knowledge that your arrangements are in capable hands.
Whatever function or engagement you are planning,
Allen will always approach his work with a passion to provide the very
best of service to his clients and a level of personal attention to
their needs and the requirements of their occasion.Code of Ethics
