Naomi & Jack's Comedy Night In is the latest in a series of online events put on by the children's hospice charity to bring in funds during the pandemic.

The evening will be compered by Paul McCaffrey, with some of the country's best known stand-ups also taking part.

Stricty Come Dancing star Seann Walsh; 8 Out of 10 Cats panellist and former Soccer AM host Lloyd Griffith; and Live at the Apollo, Have I Got News For You and Mock the Week regular Shappi Khorsandi will be on the bill.

The virtual comedy night's planned for Thursday 11th March from 8.00pm, with ticket sales going towards Naomi House's work to support children with life-limiting conditions and their families.

Lucy Gray, Regional Fundraiser at Naomi House & Jacksplace, said:

"With the landscape of fundraising ever-changing during Covid-19, we are so happy to be offering this unique online event for our supporters and to share some laughs with them at this time with the fantastic line-up of comedians.

"I'd also like to say, on behalf of everyone at the hospices, thank you so much to Paul and all of the comedians for giving up your time and efforts to raise money for Naomi House & Jacksplace - we are incredibly grateful for your support at this time."

TICKETS

If you want to watch the stand-up event, it's £6 for a single person to log in, £10 for couples or £15 for a whole household.

Naomi House is asking us for honesty when it comes to the tickets we buy, as our tickets support the charity.

The money raised through our laughter will go towards care for children with life-limiting conditions and support for their families

There are also VIP tickets available for £10, which will act as the 'front row' of the virtual comedy club.

20 spots are available, with the comedians able to see and interact with those people.

You can find out more and get hold of tickets on the Naomi House website.
