Back for the fifth year running and planning to make an even bigger difference to families in need this winter, the Human Appeal Comedy Takeover Tour features six top comedians and is hitting 19 venues in 14 towns and cities across the UK, all in the name of helping people hardest hit by the winter months.

You will be guaranteed a night of laughter, with all profits going to Human Appeal’s Winter Appeal. American comedian Jeremy McLellan, staple of Interfaith events, will join TV regular Tez Ilyas, alongside a stellar line up of rising star comedians including Sukh Ojla and Nabil Abdulrashid, as well as Ali Official and Aatif Nawaz, stars of BBC3’s “Muzlamic”, in a show which will be sure to get audiences laughing all night long.

While Human Appeal’s comedy tour will be bringing laughter across the UK this winter, it’s important to remember why it is taking place for the fifth year in a row. For yet another winter, in Syria, Somalia, Yemen and across the Middle East and North Africa, thousands of children and families will be facing freezing temperatures, flooding and snow that threatens their lives.

The money raised through the tickets you buy will be used to enable Human Appeal to give food, warmth and shelter to families in the worst-affected regions this winter.

So get your ticket today. Head to www.humanappeal.org.uk/donate/projects/events where you can take advantage of early bird and family offers and make a difference for refugee families this winter.
