Soul2Soul & Heart2Heart - Clairvoyance

Two incredible mediums dedicated to helping others and delving into the mystery that puzzles us all: Is there life after death? A fascinating conundrum that leaves us in awe. Keith Charles, the Psychic Cop with over forty-six years of experience, and Jules Bridges, who is Beyond Ordinary, address this question shrouded in intrigue and ignite curiosity to inspire you to discover their skills as mediums. Experience the wisdom for yourselves and embark on a journey with them as they connect the two realms in their performances.. For many, the concept of life after death is profoundly personal and philosophical, lacking a clear scientific or universally accepted answer, but for Jules and Keith, it’s as instinctive as breathing. All Tickets £22 All proceeds go to St Wilfrid’s Hospice, a charity Jules and Keith have strong personal connections with. 7:30PM – Friday 5 June 2026 Book Tickets Now!
