The Go Game was immense.
For one day only, sunny Soho saw 42 players running around in 8 teams posing for ridiculous photos, getting into crazy situations and generally having a hilariously fun time as they followed clues and rose to the challenges posed by the first Go Game for Good. All in the name of raising money for Raleigh and The Princes Trust.
A massive thank you everyone who took part. We raised £297 through the event, putting us a touch above that £1500 threshold – well on our way but definitely needing lots more support.
The creativity was spectacular as teams found the most bizarre locations for “inappropriate breakdancing” and composed moving reenactments of historical events using only their fingers.
They also encountered a bawling bride (played by Amy), a Spiderman who’d lost his strength and self-confidence (Ali), a vegetarian pirate (Andy) and a very mad cow (Dan).
Amy as a bawling bride, Ali looking tough as spiderman, Dan mooing his best and Andy sporting a fashionable moustache. The things we do for charity.
Some very inappropraite breakdancing
Amy stumbled upon a genuine stag do. What are the chances!
Perhaps it should be called FUN raising.
Definitely a unique event, and one that was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone (including us!) We were very lucky to team up with Mei and Chris from The Go Game UK, who run these kind of events all over the US and Europe. Thanks guys for making it so much fun!
Seems like demand will be high for a second Go Game for Good later on in the summer.
Stay tuned, and if you want to get involved with future events, please do get in touch.
