“The work Laughology is doing is great, its really is important to laugh and keep you sense of humour through life’s ups and downs. It was something that kept me going after my surgery recently and why I am using humour and laughter to help raise money for the wonderful team of people that helped look after me.”

Ricky Tomlinson - Laughter my Arse!
February 2008

After hearing Ricky Tomlinson is staging a major fund-raising show at the Liverpool Empire to say “thank you” to Broadgreen cardiothoracic centre after undergoing a quadruple bypass, we told Ricky about the work that Laughology is doing. In particular the work we are involved in researching the positive effects humour and laughter can have for patients undergoing Cardiac rehabilitation.

Ricky was really excited about our work and said:

His show: “The Show with More Bypasses than the AA Road Atlas!” is on at the Empire 13th Feb and will be well worth the laugh and money. I know Team Laughology will be buying front row tickets!
