Fundraiser Sandra Grant

I took the Stand Up Comedy Course at the Comedy School from January to March 2010 and as I got to know Keith and Debbie, I began to discover that there is much more to the Comedy School than simply giving would-be comedians a step on the comedy ladder!

The work that is done within the community, particularly working with young people, using Comedy to educate them regarding the perils of knife crime and gang culture inspired me. As a result, having already entered for the inaugural Brighton Marathon, and not having chosen a charity, I decided to run on behalf of the Comedy School.

The dedication, hard work and commitment demonstrated by Keith, Debbie and all those associated with the Comedy School is wonderful and I am privileged to have played a small part in supporting their community projects.

The pictures are of me before the event and of me being the last to cross the start line - I had to find a way of making my mark (show off that I am) and I knew it wouldn't be for crossing the finish line first, so this was the next best thing!!!
