  • Summary

  • Cheeky comedian Benny Shakes joins Laura Guthrie and Jay Sandhu for a fun and funny episode of 'Community Conversations'. Topics covered include road kill (!?), awareness raising and creating a community of disabled artists. Our guest explains how he works with children to change their attitudes to disability and build a more inclusive culture. We talk about how we can counteract the “brave and inspirational” stereotype of disabled people. Benny discusses the vulnerability disabled people can feel when they use humour to spread a message.


    Benny Shakes is a comedian who performs nationally with both his stand up (Second in the 2022 Best Midlands Comedy Show) and his comic Disability Awareness gameshow for children and adults. Benny finds humour in his own experiences of disability. He often collaborates with other disabled artists and performers, regularly broadcasting shows on YouTube.
