SAVE THE DATE

We know cancer is no laughing matter, but we also know the difference that laughter, joy and community can make. Join us for Raise the Roor for CCLG, a live comedy night for the construction industry, supporting children and young people affected by cancer.


 

Our very first comedy night, Raise the Roof for CCLG, is coming to the stage on 4 March 2027. But, this is no ordinary comedy night. We’re bringing together amateur comedians from across the construction industry to show off their best material and compete for the biggest laughs of the evening.

Ever fancied yourself as a comedian? 

Whether you are inspired by Peter Kay, want to channel the wit of Bill Bailey, or simply fancy stepping outside your comfort zone, we want to hear from you. We’re looking for people from the construction industry to take to the stage and perform a short stand-up set on the night.

Selected participants will receive coaching and training from a professional comedian to help develop their material, build confidence and prepare for the spotlight.

It’s a fantastic opportunity to challenge yourself, raise money for an important cause and perhaps discover a hidden talent along the way. Interested in becoming one of our guest comedians? Email us at corporate@cclg.org.uk 

The event will be held at Moonshine, Leicester - a 1920s-inspired speakeasy bar in the city centre and a stone's throw from the train station. So, whether you're looking to entertain clients, connect with industry colleagues, or simply want to support a great cause with plenty of laughs, mark this date in your diary.

Sponsorship Opportunities 

We're delighted to announce Pulse Consult as the Headline Sponsor, but we're still looking for organisations to help make this event a big success. All sponsorship and money raised will go directly back into research and help CCLG support children and young people with cancer.

Sponsoring Raise the Roof for CCLG is a fantastic way to: 

  • Showcase your business to industry peers 
  • Support vital childhood and young adult cancer research  
  • Gain recognition before, during and after the event 

 If your organisation would be interested in sponsoring the event, email corporate@cclg.org.uk.
