It’s been TEN years since I started making balloons in Lincoln, and I’ve been blessed to call this my job for a long time now. If the people of Lincoln (and further afield) didn’t put their trust in me to entertain at their events, this would not still be a thing so thank you, it means the world every single time.
On August 16th, I’m holding my first Annual Big Balloon Fundraiser. I’ll make you any balloon you want, and you donate any amount you want. All of the money raised goes to Sophie's Journey who are an amazing local charity.
It'll take place on Lincoln High Street from 10am until my hands don’t twist any more. If you want to donate outside of this, message me or donate directly.
There are ups and downs of running your own business however I’m proud to say that I look forward to and enjoy every day of work that I do which is an incredible privilege.
(Side note: To the kid who’s now taller than me and has a beard who told me I was at his 8th birthday party, thank you, it makes me feel very lucky (and very old).
This is the oldest photo I can find of me doing the ballooning thing, before I used my infinite creativity to name myself “Mr Twists”. If you have any photo’s you’ve taken of balloons or myself over the maaaany years, feel free to post them here. And give us a share if you fancy.
Hope to see you on the day!
