Laughter is the best medicine or at least that’s what they say! If you want to test out the theory and fancy having a go at stand-up comedy then our Feeling Funny course might be just the thing for you…

Over six weekly sessions, professional stand-up comedian Sam Avery will teach you the skills to write and perform your own comedy routine which will then culminate in a final showcase performance in front of a live audience. These unique comedy courses have been designed to give you an opportunity to tackle the subject of mental health in a light hearted way and in the process will help to improve your mental wellbeing.

Feeling Funny courses also aim to:

  • Increase confidence and communication skills
  • Help break down the stigma of mental health being an off limits subject for men and to give information about mental health support services
  • Provide a social opportunity for you to meet new people in a friendly & non-judgemental setting

 

There are 15 places available per course so if you would like to find out more please contact:
