For one night only, Eddie Izzard takes part in Stand Up For Shelter – an exclusive evening of comedy to raise money for the housing & homelessness charity Shelter.
Eddie joins a stellar line-up of comedians including Josh Widdicombe, Sara Pascoe & Rob Beckett plus more special guests to be announced. The evening will be hosted by Absolute Radio’s Christian O’ Connell.
Eddie Izzard says: “ It’s great to be doing a gig for Shelter, who are a lifeline for people battling to keep a roof over their heads. With demand for their services increasing every day, Shelter needs as much support as possible to make sure no-one has to fight bad housing or homelessness on their own. So please buy a ticket, have a laugh, & support a great charity at the same time.”
90, 000 children are homeless in Britain today, with many forced to live in one room of a hostel or B&B, sharing kitchen & bathroom facilities with strangers & with nowhere to do their homework or even eat dinner. Every penny raised from the event will go towards helping Shelter to make sure that they can be there to support all those struggling with bad housing & homelessness.
