I’m running the Hackney Half Marathon to raise money for the amazing Breathe Arts Health Research.
Breathe is a small charity that delivers innovative, award winning programmes that improve the physical and mental health of NHS staff, patients and communities.
I joined an incredibly talented cast at the Festival of Wonder in Stroud. The intention of the Festival was “to inspire a sense of wonder and hope for the more beautiful world that our hearts know is possible and a refuge from the challenges of our current world.”
When I was a member of The Young Magicians Club (The Magic Circle’s youth initiative for 10 to 18 year olds) I remember the highlight of the year being Junior Day (J-Day), the club’s own one-day convention held at The Magic Circle HQ. A packed day featuring interviews, lectures, performances from some of magic’s biggest stars, and the best part, the competitions.
Breathe Magic delivered its first in-person magic camp in over two years last month and it was an honour to be part of the journey of 16 incredible young magicians! The programme was created to help young people with hemiplegia (a weakness or paralysis affecting one side of the body as a result of brain injury or stroke) through the art of magic. After two weeks of intensive therapy, the young magicians perform a show for their families and the results are real magic!
I was so proud to represent the UK and The Magic Circle at The World Championship of Magic last week. I’ve been overwhelmed by all the messages of support - thank you everyone for all the love 🥰
I’ve had the best week at Rodney James Piper’s House of Illusion. Such an amazing team - thanks everyone for making me feel so welcome. I have one more performance in London before heading to Canada for the World Championship of Magic.
