Shappi

Comedian Shappi Khorsandi will host the Employee Benefits Awards 2016 on Friday 3 June.

Khorsandi’s original sell-out Edinburgh show, Asylum Speaker, led to numerous television appearances on popular comedy shows such as Mock the Week, Lenny’s Britain and The Big Read.

She has also become a regular on Radio 4 shows, with credits from Quote Unquote and The Unbelievable Truth to her own series Shappi Talk.

In addition to appearances on Live at the Apollo, Genius and Channel 4's Alternative Election Night, Khorsandi also works as a commentator, discussing everything from Woman's Hour to the Open University, Question Time and The Culture Show.

The winners of the Employee Benefits Awards will be announced during a lunch time ceremony and summer party at the Artillery Garden at the HAC, London, on 3 June 2016.
