The coronavirus crisis is having a devastating impact on people's mental health and our services are needed more than ever. With a huge loss in our fundraising income we need your help to meet the growing demand for our essential support services.

Story

Did you know laughter has been scientifically proven to benefit mental health? Laughing can reduce stress, improve your immune system and also release endorphins (the happy hormone). 

We have teamed up with UTC Artist Management to deliver an evening of live online stand-up comedy on Wednesday 24th March! We have the following fantastic comedians joining us: Russell Hicks, Kate Lucas, Toussaint Douglass and Ola Labib, each will perform for 10-15 minutes.

Entrance fee is £7 per person (free for Changes Bristol members) and all donations will go directly towards supporting Changes Bristol services in helping people in mental distress.
