A Night With Paul Mayhew Archer featuring his comedy show "Incurable optimist," hosted by Billericay & District Parkinson's Support Group .
He is a role model for so many people with the condition, trusted to speak honestly about what living with Parkinson's means for him and admired for his dedication to remain positive in the face of adversity.His show "Incurable Optimist" (which was very close to being named Vicar of Dribbly, thanks to one of the many Parkinson's symptoms) was a huge success at Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and has also gone on to sell out at other branches for Parkinson's UK.
Describing the event himself, Paul says:
“I’ve taken the show to the Edinburgh Fringe and all over the country, and people seem to love it, whether or not they have Parkinson’s. They laugh a lot, some cry a little and we all feel better at the end.”
Now he is coming to Billericay! All funds raised for this event will go toward helping our local community branch at Billericay & District Parkinson's UK Support Group. The event will be our first major event since Covid hit and we are beyond excited to welcome you all: those with Parkinson's, those caring for people with Parkinson's, those who want to show their support or those who are just a massive fan of comedy.
We will also be hosting a raffle on the night and there will be people on hand if you wish to know more about Parkinson's and why your support is so important to us. Any donations will be greatly accepted, any money raised on the night will directly go to the Billericay & District Parkinson's Support Group.
The Billericay & District Parkinson's Support Group aims to provide information, support and advice for people with Parkinson’s, their carers, families and friends. Because we’re here, no one has to face Parkinson’s alone. The Branch meet in-person at various events, activities and our monthly meetings; for more info visit the website: https://billericayparkinsons.org.uk/.
Parkinson’s is the fastest-growing neurological condition in the world, and currently, there is no cure. In the UK, around 145,000 people are already living with Parkinson’s and every hour another two people are diagnosed.
We welcome other organisations and local businesses to support us, please get in touch with [email protected] for more info.
