Funny Business...is BACK!
Weston Park Cancer Charity is excited to relaunch our iconic event, Funny Business, after an eight-year break. Between 2012 and 2017, this event raised over £160,000, and we’re looking forward to bringing it back with even greater success.

About
Weston Park Cancer Charity’s ‘Funny Business’ comedy challenge is making a comeback after an 8-year hiatus!
In the fundraiser, thrill-seeking supporters will develop their very own stand-up routine, which they’ll perform in Sheffield City Hall’s Memorial Hall.
Contestants will be taught the tricks of the trade in group coaching sessions, under the guidance of a professional comedian.
Once they’ve performed in front of friends, family, and colleagues, a fabulous panel of judges will crown the 2026 Funny Business Champion.
