Join us and our guest speaker, TV writer Emma Kennedy, for an evening of political satire, jokes and belly-aching humour!

Emma is a British author, TV writer, actress, and presenter, known for her role in the award-winning comedy Goodness Gracious Me, winning Celebrity MasterChef in 2012, and her appearances in shows like People Like Us and Miranda. 

She has been a member of the Liberal Democrats since 2010, was fiercely anti-Brexit, and is now a Surrey Parish Councillor. 

Not for the faint-hearted, she has very rude jokes about Michael Gove!

Our friends at Veer Dhara have given us exclusive use of the venue to enjoy a welcome drink, a 5-course banquet, and unlimited soft drinks throughout the evening.  We'll have our wonderful Lib Dem auction and raffle, and if time allows, post-dinner dancing.

It’s going to be a night of food, fun, friendship and fundraising.

Please come and enjoy the evening!
