My name is Brad Shaw. I’m a voice actor, presenter and entrepreneur. At the beginning of the first lockdown, I was diagnosed with stage 3 melanoma and was told that I would have to face a year of immunotherapy infusions.
I decided that I’d engage with the voiceover community and create a project that we could all get involved with. The Wonderland Challenge was born.
I split Alice in Wonderland up into 159 one minute chunks and offered it out to my colleagues. The idea was that you record a minute and donate something to the NHS. I was overwhelmed with the response. I started to get enquiries from celebrities such as Dame Harriet Walter and Michael Palin amongst others. I collected the clips and started to piece it all together.

I will be releasing the book as a podcast, chapter by chapter until it is complete. Enjoy
PS I have been in remission for 2 years now.
