Liz Carr is a vibrant British comedian, actress, and passionate disability rights advocate who’s making waves with her authenticity and humor. Coming from a cerebral palsy diagnosis, Liz uses every experience she’s gained to break down barriers and prove stereotypes wrong, which makes her both inspiring but incredibly relatable at the same time. Having been on stage cracking jokes and living full-time as part of the casts of “Coronation Street” and “Emmerdale,” Liz has this unbelievable knack for connecting with people on a real level.
Liz is not just a talented actress, but an ardent advocate for greater accessibility and representation within the entertainment industry at large. She has also penned a memoir called “I’m Not Good Enough, I’m Fine” which touched many hearts, and mirrored perfectly to so many’s experiences in honesty. What I love about Liz is that she brings humor, talent, and commitment to making the world a more understanding place into her work, which makes her a very loved figure and a true role model for so many.
As of December 2024, Liz Carr is 52 years and 8 months old, her estimated net worth is $3 million, and she stands at a height of 5 feet 3 inches (161 cm or 1.61 m) tall.

$3 million
As of December 2024, it’s estimated that Liz Carr has a net worth of about $3 million. Carr’s sources of income are diversified by the various activities she engages in, which include acting, comedy, activist work, public speaking, and media appearances. Here is a breakdown of her earnings.
Acting: Her first major performing role was that of Clarissa Mullery in the long-running BBC programme Silent Witness, for which she performed for nearly ten years. This would have seen her pocket a few millions from just this role, considering the caliber of actors who generally receive handsome salaries for appearances in good running series. She has further had smaller acting roles in The Witcher, The OA, Loki, and Good Omens, amongst others.
Comedy and Theatre: She began performing in comedy as part of the company Abnormally Funny People and now regularly performs stand-up work. Again, this work, whilst focusing on the disability theme but with humor and social insight, generates additional income through ticket sales and performance fees from theater productions like Assisted Suicide: The Musical.
Public Speaking and Endorsements: For doing activism work concerning disability rights, Carr is a good public speaker. She’s probably raking in the dough through endorsement deals and speaking engagements, especially from organizations and events that highly regard her insights concerning disability rights.
Writing and media: She also writes articles in other journals, talking about their rights and social issues, which is another source of income. Carr also does podcasts and talk shows: There is another source of income to be earned from podcasts and talk shows.
Investments: As most high-net-worth people do, Carr probably has real estate investments and financial ones, though those details are not public. These investments keep her financially secure and grow her wealth over time.
