Schools are out, most of us are working from home and everyone is looking for something to beat the boredom - The ARCHIE Foundation has the answer and invites everyone to be part of what they hope will break the world record for the world’s ‘Largest Ever Online Quiz’.
What’s more, by taking part you will be raising money to help ensure ARCHIE can continue to support the NHS in helping local sick children and their families at a time of unprecedented need. They expect to see an increased demand from the general public for ARCHIE’s services and need all the support they can muster.
You can help and here’s how:
Hosted by Northsound’s Lauren Mitchell, ARCHIE’S Record Breaking Online Quiz will be held on April 1at 8pm on Facebook Live.
The rules:
- Quizmaster Lauren will ask the questions.
- You will write down the answers (‘answer sheets’ are available for downloading or copying from the ARCHIE Facebook Page).
- Take a photo of your answer sheets (or a screen grab if you're editing on your phone or other device) and send them to ARCHIE via Facebook Messenger.
- Sending in your sheets is super important for two key reasons. Firstly it shows Guinness World Records how many of you lovely people take part. Secondly everyone who takes part will be entered into a prize draw to win a prize.
- Lauren will end the suspense and run through all the answers.
- Behind the scenes we will verify entries and pick a winner. Remember you have to be in it to win it and you have to donate to be in it.
- Lauren will announce the winner live and will confirm if we have scooped a world record. More importantly she will announce the total sum of money we have collectively raised to help local sick children, their families and the NHS.
