Starting off September with a bang, it’s Johnny’s 2nd interview with the lovely @kiripritchardmc 🎙👂⬇️ Kiri is on a HUGE UK & Ireland tour, ending in December, at some point she’ll be on stage close to you! 🇬🇧🇮🇪 Be warned, some venues have sold out, and others are close to selling out, so be quick & get tickets ASAP (full list of dates and venues, via the link below). Kiri is in #Glasgow on the 8th Sep, #Aberdeen on the 27th Nov, and #Edinburgh on the 29th Nov. 🎟 The #BruceWayne of comedy (she’s still working on securing that mansion) has had a busy few years, and in her latest standup #Peacock features a look into the world of foster care. After a few steps forward, and a few steps back, a stage show about fostering has now been signed off. Kiri brings to light this world via ‘Louise’ … lifting the lid on foster care, and social work, including first aid training and what happens when a local vicar lifts searches your name on the net. If you see Kiri live, a representative will be available for more information regarding Foster care, and becoming a foster parent/guardian. "frank, funny – and, yes, feminist" - THE TELEGRAPH "It’s fantastic to see our foster carer, Kiri, positively promoting fostering during her UK tour. It will really help increase awareness of foster care, and challenge false perceptions around what it takes to be a foster carer. We hope that through Kiri candidly sharing her fostering journey, people will recognise skills and qualities in themselves and consider putting in an enquiry to foster" - ALASTAIR COPE, HEAD OF #FOSTERWALES #kiripritchardmclean #kiripritchardmcleanpeacock #livecomedy #uktour #fostercare #fosterparents #socialwork #fosterwales #standupcomedy #allkillanofilla #peacock #peacockfeathers #podcastclips #autumn #newseason #newepisode

It’s a journey you wouldn’t want anyone to have to take, especially at 16 years of age. Safety and understanding are the first steps on the rest of their journey. Find out how you can support a young refugee at #OurHome #RefugeeWeek
