The Foundation also provides employment opportunities and professional development through the Sedulo Group, a nationwide business consultancy. Very special compere still to be announced! **Rosie Jones** Rosie Jones is a must-see act on the UK comedy circuit. Having fronted two travelogue series’ of her own for Channel 4, Mission: Accessible and Trip Hazard, both of which were recommissioned for a second series, Rosie can also be seen on countless hit television shows including Live at the Apollo, The Jonathan Ross Show, 8 Out of 10 Cats, Cats Does Countdown, The Last Leg, Joe Lycett’s Got Your Back, Mock the Week, Hypothetical, The Ranganation, Jon Richardson’s Channel Hopping, Dating: No Filter and The Last Leg of Tokyo 2020 to name a few! **Joe Pasquale** Joe Pasquale has been making audiences laugh for nearly four decades with his unmistakable high-pitched voice, boundless energy, and brilliantly sharp comedy. Since first rising to national attention as runner-up on New Faces in 1987, Joe has become one of the UK’s most beloved entertainers, starring across stand-up, television, theatre, and pantomime. He went on to win I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! in 2004 and has remained a household favourite ever since. **Terry Alderton** Terry Alderton has always been something special. With a set full of extraordinary caricatures – where he famously is interrupted, and with his back turned, battles with his TWO inner voices’ - and some stunningly acute impressions, observations and a hyperactive delivery, stand-up performer Terry Alderton is loved by comics and fans alike. Indeed, top TV comedian Eddie Izzard said of him: “He’s a very funny man with a ‘fantastic comedy mind, but someone who really ought to seek some sort of professional help”. **Jack Skipper** South London comic Jack Skipper has recently gone from a carpet fitter with no qualifications to an internet sensation and full-time comedian. Whether telling stories of life as a family man or observations on working-class life, his everyday guy persona has seen him blow up on social media. He recently starred in the Stand Up Sketch Show on ITV2 as well as on Comedy Central Live and has been supporting Michael McIntyre and Josh Widdicombe on tour. **Chantel Nash** Chantel Nash started performing stand-up comedy half way through 2022 and has been gradually clawing her way onto the comedy circuit, having already shared the stage with some of her comedy heroes including Kerry Godliman, Slim, Laura Smyth and Kane Brown. Her effortless charm is winning over audiences one postcode at a time and she has won regional heats and reached the finals of both the So You Think You’re Funny and BBC New Act competitions this year.
