Story

Son - gaming aficionado.  Excels at most games, F1, FIFA, spends a lot of time gaming. 

Mum - hasn't been near a console since the 1990s.  Excels at Solitaire on her phone.

The challenge - son teaches mum how to play various games.  His choice of games.  Neither Son or Mum can get cross.  Neither Son or Mum can give up. 

And what's more, we'll be LIVESTREAMING this.  Come and laugh at Mum's complete lack of control coordination.  Watch live as Son tries not to show his exasperation as he explains what the X button does for the 14th time.    We will provide a link so you can watch!

LIVESTREAM WEDNESDAY 10th AUGUST from 7.45pm

History has shown that this doesn't last long (Basketball lasted a record 14 minutes back in 2018).  How long this challenge lasts depends on how much we raise....

When you make a donation to our page, you can vote for the game Mum has to learn, well, at least try.  Which will be interesting as she's only heard of the first 2 games...

  • Cook, Serve, Delicious 2
  • Speedrunners
  • Nidhogg
