Well, I'm not sure what algorithms you've been seeing these past few days, but aren't you a lovely bunch! 🥰

A thread ... enjoy!

First of all, thank you to everyone who's reached out recently asking how you can support creative #freelancers like me with everything we've been doing in Lockdown. It will come as no surprise to hear it's been a crap year, but there have been moments of light that have helped.

Naturally live comedy is currently not an option, so pretty much everything went online. Somehow, most of my work now seems to be for children (but more on that shortly). In the meantime, @HYOC2020 have some great ways to support those in the cultural & creative world.

It's amazing the variety of ways we've been able to stay creatively active & viable.
From creating content for Youtube (youtube.com/PhilipsComedy) & TikTok (tiktok.com/@PhilipsComedy) to all the podcasts you've enjoyed (including @JewTalkin | jewtalkintome.com)

But surprisingly for me, having spent years gigging on the adult UK comedy circuit, most of the content I've created has been for children struggling through #lockdown & #homeschooling.

It's these projects, and the money raised for @FareShareUK, of which I'm most proud.

So, whether your kids (or you, that's ok too) are fans of Daddy Pig, Limericks or children's jokes (youtube.com/SchoolsOutCome… | @SOComedyClub) you can support some of the things I've been doing right here: philipsimon.co.uk/shop

Thank you 🙌🏻
