Who We Are

A Club Built for the Quiet & Thoughtful Child

Planted Voices is a faith-rooted public speaking & confidence building club for kids aged 7–14, based in Purley.

We run programmes during school holidays, giving children a dedicated space to find their voice, grow in communication, and step into leadership — at their own pace.

If your child has something to say but needs the confidence to say it, this is for them.

🌍 Our values are faith-inspired — and our programmes warmly welcome children of all backgrounds and beliefs.

Get In Touch

"My son went in shy and came out standing taller."

— Dad, Purley

Mission Statement

Planted Voices exists to give every quiet, thoughtful child a safe space to practice, grow, and discover that their voice matters — now, not decades from now.

This isn't just us saying it — the UK Government agrees.

"The Government will publish a new oracy framework to ensure more young people become confident and effective speakers."

— UK Department for Education, November 2025

The new curriculum is planned to land in UK Schools in 2028.
We are open NOW.

Aysha Powell — Founder of Planted Voices

From the Founder

I spent 18 years climbing the corporate ladder as an introvert. What nobody tells you is that the higher you go, the less it's about competence — and the more it's about confidence.

The loudest voice in the room wins, whether they're right or not.

It wasn't until my 7-year-old's teacher told me "he knows the answers, but he freezes when the other kids look at him" that everything clicked.

I saw myself in him — the same fear, the same hesitation. And I thought: why should our children wait until they're adults to learn what they could practise safely as kids?

Planted Voices exists so they don't have to.
