“Our incredible performers sure did make it a night to remember. **Ophelia Payne**, our wonderful host and MindOut ambassador, glued the show together with sequins, songs, banter and hamsters (you really had to be there!)

“**Hannah Brackenbury** was as joyful as ever with silly songs about cats, hayfever and the **i360**. **Alfie Ordinary** was anything but normal as Tinky-Winky. Comedy stars **Kate Cheka** and **Emily Bampton** from the **Cocoa Butter Club** made our faces ache from laughing. And our headliner **Lee Peart** stole the show! All this alongside our equally hilarious BLS interpreters, **Paula Cox** and **Paul Michaels**.
