A wise man once told me to stand on street corners and laugh. He said we need more laughter in the world. Twenty years and a few street corners later here I am, laughing with communities, companies and individuals to make our world a more tolerant, joyful place.

My passion is for communicating and sharing, and includes using laughter therapeutically and for fun. I am known as an inspirational speaker delivering workshops, trainings, ice breakers and presentations throughout the UK and overseas.

I believe in community, so set up the Laughter Network (2004-2014) and National Laughter Week (2012-2017) and run the UK Laughter Championships, and also a clean drinking water project in Ghana and teach yoga breathing techniques. In 2016 I set up the Laughter Yoga School Manchester and Central.

I am also a performance poet, playwright and shiatsu practitioner.

Based in Greater Manchester, the North of England and Wales.
