£250 up for grabs for top talent

2025-04-16T14:57:49+01:00Wednesday 16 April 2025|

Are you a singer, dancer, musician or comedian – or do you have a unique talent you think could wow a crowd?

If so, now’s your chance to shine and win a top cash prize of £250 in Walsall’s Got Talent!

Open to everyone living in the borough, this exciting competition is being hosted by Walsall Healthcare’s Well Wishers charity and hopes to uncover amazing talent in our communities.

All funds raised on the night will go towards making a difference to patients, staff and volunteers at Walsall Manor Hospital and its community services.

Georgie Westley, Fundraising Manager, said, “We’re so excited about this event. This is a complete first for us as a charity and I can’t wait to see how talented people from Walsall are.

“We have hosted an event called ‘Trust’s Got Talent’ in the past, asking our staff to take part, but this year we want it to be an even bigger and better event.

“I would love to see a wide variety of different acts. And who knows, we could have Walsall’s answer to Ashleigh Butler and her dog Pudsey who won the Britain’s Got Talent TV show back in the day.”

Auditions will be held on 6 July, with a panel of judges selecting the top 12 acts to go through to the grand final in September, held at Pelsall Community and Arts Centre.

Acts will need to be available to audition between 12pm-6pm, at the centre.

To book your audition place for the audition please contact Well Wishers on 01922 656643 or email wht.fundraising@nhs.net.

Finalists will have the opportunity to buy tickets for friends and family to come along and support them at the final. These may have to be limited if demand is high.

Cash prizes include:

1st £250 – donated by H & Jodie’s

2nd £150 – donated by Geoff’s Decks

3rd £75 – donated by Vibrant Networks

All contestants must be available to attend the Walsall’s Got Talent big final on Saturday 27 September 2025 at Pelsall Community and Arts Centre at 7.30pm.

The event is sponsored by Walsh Funeral & Memorials, H&Jodies Nisa, Best of Walsall, Vibrant Networks and Geoff’s Decks.
