Big Comedy UK Brendan Riley said:- “Our Comedy Bingo Winter Socials are back! We’re really pleased to be able to host these again at Southport Market throughout this autumn and winter, thanks to the ongoing support of Halliwell Jones MINI in Southport and their Big Love campaign. We’d love to thank them for making these events possible. It works really well with how much they support the local community through their MINI Big Love campaign. We’re very grateful also to all the local businesses and organisations which donate raffle prizes, including The Atkinson, Southport Flower Show, Crystal Clear Opticians, Southport Market and others. If you’d like to donate any raffle prizes to our events please get in touch. We have been running comedy bingo socials at Southport Market for the past 18 months, ever since the cost of living crisis began affecting everyone in January last year. Lots of families were also hit hard by the impact of the Covid Pandemic and years of lockdown. Social isolation has become a massive issue for so many people. Our Comedy Bingo Socials were originally developed with the aim of encouraging pensioners to come out and enjoy each others’ company and have a great time. But the event has really developed, and now we are attracting people of all ages. We attract senior citizens, young parents, kids running around, people living on their own, people who work in the evenings, people who are new to Southport, all sorts. It makes for a great atmosphere. Our oldest bingo winner so far has been 100 years old! "
Aidan Williams, Group Marketing Manager at Halliwell Jones, said:- “We’re delighted to be supporting for the second year the Southport Comedy Bingo Winter Socials at Southport Market. It was fantastic to see so many locals attend the 8 events we previously sponsored. Bren and Val have delivered a fantastic initiative which helps to bring people together and tackle isolation during these winter months.”
