The Loss Foundation Annual Comedy Night

Back in June, I had the privilege of once again photographing the Loss Foundation’s charity comedy night at Union Chapel in London. When they contacted me about coming back for their 2018 comedy night, I didn’t hesitate for one second to say YES. And that’s not just because one of my favorite comedians, James Acaster, was in the lineup. ;)

Erin, Clair and the team at The Loss Foundation are some of the most genuine, committed, loving and serving people I have ever had the joy of working with. They are real people, with real big hearts and dedicate so much of themselves to supporting those who are grieving from losing a loved one to cancer.

 

“The Loss Foundation is the only UK charity dedicated solely to providing bereavement support following the loss of a loved one to cancer, whether that be spouses, family members, friends or colleagues.

We provide a variety of support events to help people at any point during their loss and create the opportunity for them to meet others who have experienced something similar. We also educate and empower others to support those who are grieving via our workshops and training.” (www.thelossfoundation.org)

 

Their annual comedy nights are put on to raise money for the charity. “The event has been praised as the comedy night of the year and also been Time Out’s recommended event.” That’s pretty cool! I feel privileged to have been a part of it. See a few of my favorite photographs from the night below!
