Founder and Chief Executive – Funny Women CIC

At the heart of Funny Women is a desire to help women find their voice, whether that be through performing and writing comedy or using humour in business and everyday life. Their blood is the Funny Women Awards which launched in 2003 and now sets the gold standard for women breaking into comedy. Alumni include great talents like Sara Pascoe, Sarah Millican and many more, who have all gone on to have sustainable careers as comedy performers and writers.
