The Comedy Trust: 'Creating Happier, Healthier People' since 2002. The Comedy Trust is a registered charity based in Merseyside that was established to develop comedy audiences and performers. We develop and deliver a range of comedy and humour based community, education and mental health and well-being projects with young people, adults, people in recovery and individuals with mental health issues. Since 2002 over 10,000 people have taken part in one of our groundbreaking comedy programmes. 90% of participants tell us they’ve experienced an increase in confidence, communication skills or well-being. The Trust also delivers Liverpool's annual Comedy Festival.
