Story

Intro

The 30th Belfast Boys Brigade are doing a 24 hour gaming marathon in memory of one of our Company Section Boys Dylan who sadly passed away in December.

Steven (our company Captain) and Jonny (one of our company section officers) are going to spend 24 hours playing video games online and streamed on twitch.

Are we experienced live-streamer? No we are not, not even slightly.

Are you wanting to have fun? Absolutely

Is it going to be easy? We both really doubt it, but we are up for the challenge.

Is our goal to raise funds and awareness for a local charity? 110% it is!

Come and join us online and have a laugh with us. Help support us when we are finding things tough, but most of all help us raise some money for Children’s Heartbeat Trust in memory of Dylan Phillips.

How is this going to work?

Good question! 

During the 24 hours there will be at least one of us (Steven or Jonny) online but most of the time there will be both of us online.  For certain games we will have people down at the church joining in with the games. Some of them may join us on camera, but for the boys of the BB they will be playing along but not on the camera with us.

When is this going to happen?

Date: We will be starting at 6pm on Friday 18th March and finish at 6pm on Saturday 19th March.

Where can I watch you playing online?
