Why we need your support
We’re taking part in Midnight Madness London – one of the toughest intellectual challenges around.
Starting on the evening of Saturday 16 May and finishing as the sun rises, we’ll be battling it out against other teams in a race across London, solving mind-bendingly difficult puzzles, all wrapped up in an immersive storyline.
We can handle the puzzles, but this is where we need your help.
We’re raising money on behalf of Raise Your Hands – an incredible organisation that amplifies the impact that small charities have on the lives of children and young people across the UK. Their portfolio of exceptional charities is making a real difference to young lives every day.
Together, we can give more children the chance to thrive, no matter the challenges they face.
Donating Over £1,000?
