The One Million Keepy Uppy Challenge for Brain Tumour Research kicks off on Friday 18th November. It costs £1 million to fund a Brain Tumour Research Centre of Excellence for a year so, as football fever once again strikes the UK, our goal is to collectively achieve one million keepy uppies.
Whether you’re a regular matchwinner or it’s your first touch, you can help us raise vital funds and awareness to find a cure. Keep practicing your fancy footwork throughout the month and, as the final whistle is blown in Qatar on Sunday 18th December, be part of our festivities as we celebrate our own special World Cup achievement.
Set up a Facebook Fundraiser or JustGiving page and ask people to donate
Make a pledge of how many keepy uppies you will do towards our goal of one million during the World Cup.
Invite others to join your team or make their own pledge and take part as an individual, family or group.
Post your progress on your social media and tag us Brain Tumour Research.
