Story

Thanks for checking out our page!

Rob and Rory have signed up to the London Marathon in April and have been foolish enough to agree to run it dressed as Winnie the Pooh and Tigger. The costumes will be heavy, unwieldily, and most importantly, look very silly. 

We're running for a wonderful children's charity called The Art Room. The Art Room provides art as therapy to children who have suffered trauma or are experiencing emotional and behavioural difficulties. It provides a caring and creative environment for these children to learn in and grow. It runs art rooms in Oxford, London and Edinburgh, where practitioners trained in psychotherapy, art, teaching, drama therapy and social work run lessons. 

It's an amazing charity, which we both know well, and it makes a huge difference to the lives of vulnerable children. It relies entirely on donations and greatly needs our support. All donations will help them continue their incredible work, and help Pooh and Tigger battle their way across London. 

Lots of love x

The Art Room works with over 500 children each week in socially deprived areas of the UK. Using art as therapy we offer respite from the difficulties they face. We help them reengage with their education and support them in gaining confidence and independence as they learn and achieve through art.
