Jaik Campbell

Jaik Campbell (BSc, MSc by Research) is a British stand-up comedian, writer and was an Edinburgh Fringe Festival regular between 2001 and 2008.

He completed his bachelor’s degree in geography at Bristol University and his master’s at Edinburgh University, but following various unfulfilling office jobs he decided to follow his dream of becoming a stand-up comedian.

After a few years on the London comedy circuit, he performed stand-up at prestigious venues such as The Comedy Store, Banana Cabaret and Headliners, appeared on BBC and ITV television, and reached the finals of several UK comedy competitions.

He also campaigns for maintaining UK speech and language therapy services, early intervention for children and is a strong supporter of the British Stammering Association. He now lives and works in rural Suffolk, in the east of England, with his partner Jennifer, his two young children, Angus and Emma, a cat and ten chickens.
