Lost Voice Guy
Comedian. Disabled before it was popular. The Geordie without an accent.
I took part in the Great North Run with the best people! Shout out to Lee, Ollie, Claudia and Paul for doing the hard work! Here’s a little video from the day. There’s still time to sponsor us as well. Link in my bio. 😁

This is the face of someone who didn’t get to see @arminvanbuuren at @ushuaiaibiza tonight because, after waiting 2 hours for an accessible taxi, he decided to give up. Proving that there’s still a long way to go until we live in an accessible world @ibizatravel

Great North Run: Completed 🏅
What an incredible day with incredible people! Thanks for all the love I received around the course, it really took my breath away. And a special thanks to my pushers, Lee, Ollie, Claudia and Paul, who were such a team together! And, of course, we all raised lots of money for the brilliant @smileforlifechildrenscharity. The whole experience has made me even prouder to be a Geordie!
There’s still time to donate if you haven’t yet - link in bio!

Lost Voice Boy has been helping me get ready for the @great_run on Sunday, which I`m taking part in on behalf of @smileforlifechildrenscharity. They are an amazing charity which helps disabled children and young people. There`s still time to sponsor me if you can (link in bio). I`d really appreciate anything you could give!
#GreatNorthRun #GNR #GNR23

@smileforlifechildrenscharity is just a brilliant charity, and I’m proud to be their patron and be running (rolling) the @great_run for them. They do great work with disabled children and young people. And they really work hard to empower these young people to achieve everything that they can in life. ❤️

Love this photo of me and the late Andy Smart taken by stevebestpics. What a lovely guy he was! It`s in his latest book, COMEDIANS 2 with over 200 beautiful images of comedians, backstage and front of stage, the highs and the lows, the passion and the angst. Check it out here: www.stevebest.com.

I couldn’t come to Edinburgh and not perform, right?! Catch me at #edfringe tomorrow as we raise funds for the family of the amazing Gareth Richards, who died recently. See you at Whistlebinkies on Southbridge at 4pm!

Just watched @TrainspotLive at #edfringe for the second time in a few years. Still as good this time around. Definitely go and see it!
