Who Are We?
JFL is a Fair Trade Comedy Movement which organises and stages Stand Up Comedy Nights. We begun life early in 2005 in Leeds staging a regular night which ran for over 2 years. Branching out from there a network of regular and one off shows has emerged as well as a booking agency that works with companies, charities and other organizations to stage quality comedy events.
JFL is sponsored by Untied Co-operatives and as part of it's mandate as well as bring the best in stand up drawing upon a vast network of the top comedians throughout the UK, we also seek to promote the cause of Fair-trade by making information and literature available at all our events.
Why do we do what we do?
We do it because we want to:
- Provide good, clean and affordable entertainment
- Promote the cause of Fairtrade
- Support the Speak campaigns network, both financially and with awareness raising
- Provide a positive addition to the cultural landscape
- And most of all, to provide a bloody good night of laughter and frivolity
A portion of all profits are donated to our partner charity SPEAK (Justice & Campaigns Network)
