LATEST NEWS

You've obviously been getting busy letting your teachers and leaders know about the CHEEKY MONKEY'S MARATHON CHALLENGE! Already, over 2,000 schools, groups and clubs have asked for all the info so their kids can do the "CHALLENGE". And so far, over 25,000 kids have already got the stuff they need to get going!

As you can see, there's been a tremendous response so far, but there's still plenty of time to organise even more events. So don't worry if you won't be seeing your teacher or leader until Summer's over - they can send for your stuff then. Or, maybe your Summer Club would like to get involved. Show your leader the info below and ask them to call Pippa or Lisa on 020 7404 0808 (e-mail: topbanana@leukaemia.org) for an information pack.


WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT?


As you probably know by now, Bubblegum has recently teamed up with the CHILDREN with LEUKAEMIA charity to help organise a whole bunch of sponsored events over the summer and beyond.

All the money raised from these events will go to your school/club and the CHILDREN with LEUKAEMIA charity, so not only will it be great fun, you'll be helping a worthy cause too!


HOW DO YOU GET INVOLVED?


The first thing you need to do is get your thinking caps on and come up with a suitable challenge for you and your mates to take part in. Your challenge must be organised through your school or a club (youth club, scouts, brownies etc.) so the next step is to get your teacher (group leader, scout master, brown owl etc.) to send off for an information pack (see further information below)

THERE'S GOODIES UP FOR GRABS TOO!


The information pack will explain how everything works in greater detail and there are also exclusive Bubblegum goodies on offer for everyone who takes part!

If you complete your Marathon Challenge you will get a wicked certificate for your wall!

If you collect £5 or more you will get a Bubblegum Klip'emon of your choice (these are dead cool, you can't buy them in the shops, they are totally exclusive to those who complete the challenge!)

Collecting £15 or more gets you the complete set of all four Klip'emon!

Raise £26 or more and you will also receive your choice of a COOL DUDE or GROOVY CHICK baseball cap!

And if you go completely bananas with your fund-raising, £50 or more will get you all the above PLUS a Top Banana Aqua calculator - Yo, add that up!

AND FINALLY...
If YOUR school or club is organising a MARATHON CHALLENGE, drop us a line and tell us all about it, we'd love to hear from you. Hey! Maybe we'll give you a mention on the site!

You've already sent us hundreds of suggestions for challenges so there's no excuses for not sending off for an info pack and helping raise some much needed cash for some seriously ill children.
