PEOPLE are invited to beat lockdown boredom with afternoon laughs to raise money for refugees.

Following the success of last year's series - which raised £1,300 for refugee charities - The Humanity Show is back with Afternoon Delight, starring comedians Kate Smurthwaite, Joe Wells and Sikisa (aka Twix).

Organiser Harry Brunskill, of Furness Refugee Support, said: "Who says comedy has to be at night? "This is a great way of breaking up long, lockdown afternoons and raising money for a good cause at the same time.

"This is a great line-up! Sikisa is also an immigration lawyer, so she may have something to say about refugees."
