photoLisa Rutty is a Friend of Talkies and volunteer. You may have seen her on the Talkies stall at festivals and at events. It was Lisa who brought local actor Jeremy Swift to Talkies for 'Downhill' and 'Men in Shorts'.

Lisa is very gifted, kind, and fun to be with. She has helped out as a volunteer with many other local organisations.

Tragically, late last year aged 53, Lisa suffered a major stroke and then contracted bacterial meningitis, resulting in serious brain damage.

Lisa's partner Kevin is supporting her through these difficult times and would like to invite you to a charity gala to raise funds for the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, where Lisa is being treated. Lisa is one of the many people the hospital has treated with stroke, multiple sclerosis (MS), brain cancer, epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, and Prion disease.

It would be great if you could support Kevin on Wednesday 15 June at the Backyard Comedy Club in Bethnal Green.
