Comedy stars donate their talents to help Brook at Sex Appeal 5

Published: 15 January 2016

A brilliant line up of high profile comedy names will appear at Sex Appeal 5 in London’s Conway Hall this Saturday 16 January, in aid of young people’s sexual health and wellbeing charity Brook.

Shappi Khorsandi is hosting, with a great line up – Abigoliah Schamaun, Ava Vidal, David Baddiel, David Mills, Gráinne Maguire, Nish Kumar, Richard Herring, Robin Ince, Sara Pascoe, and Shazia Mirza.

Sex Appeal 5 is raising money for the Brook’s digital service Ask Brook (legacy.brook.org.uk/askbrook), which provides honest, non-judgemental advice to young people who have nowhere else to turn.

Once again, Brook is thrilled to be working in partnership with Lovehoney, who have supported Sex Appeal since it began.

Brook Ambassador Zoe Margolis, who organises the event said:

"I'm absolutely delighted Sex Appeal has been such a success that it is in its fifth year now. It's a fabulous event, with a wonderful line up of talented comedians who all generously donate their time, and we're also grateful to Lovehoney for their annual assistance with the show.

“I'm very proud that our comedy benefit helps such a worthy cause as Brook: ensuring young people get proper sex education, advice and support is incredibly important. Here's to another sold-out show!"

Lovehoney’s co-founder Richard Longhurst said:

“We’ve always been big fans of Brook’s sex-positive ethos and the invaluable service it provides to young people. We’re proud to be able to help in any way we can.

“It doesn’t get much more sexually happy than a comedy night in aid of a sexual health charity. Count us in!”
