A DISABLED stand-up comedian who wowed audiences on his way to winning hit ITV show Britain’s Got Talent last summer will perform to a sold-out Barnsley crowd tomorrow night.
Lee Ridley, who goes by the stage name Lost Voice Guy, was diagnosed with a neurological form of cerebral palsy as a six-month-old.
The illness was brought about by a brain infection that left him in a coma for two months, which affected his movement and rendered him unable to speak.
He now uses a communication aid and will perform his show I’m Only In It For The Parking at The Civic tomorrow night.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
