Taking on a Family Fund gaming fundraising<\/a><\/strong> or charity streaming challenge<\/a><\/strong> is exciting – but we know it can sometimes mean long hours in front of a screen. At Family Fund, we care just as much about your wellbeing as we do about the funds you raise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some simple, family-friendly tips to help you enjoy your challenge, stay safe and feel good along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

\n
\n\n \n \n

\n\n Take regular breaks\n\n <\/h3>\n \n
\n It can be tempting to keep playing or streaming non-stop, but giving yourself short breaks makes all the difference. Step away from the screen, stretch, and move around to keep your body and mind refreshed.\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
\n\n \n \n

\n\n Stay hydrated and fuelled\n\n <\/h3>\n \n
\n Keep water and healthy snacks close by. Staying hydrated and eating little and often helps you stay focused and energised, whether you’re gaming, dancing or hosting a quiz.\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
\n\n \n \n

\n\n Make it social\n\n <\/h3>\n \n
\n Fundraising is more fun together. Invite friends or family to join you – either online or in person – so you can share the challenge, cheer each other on, and make memories as well as money.\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
\n\n \n \n

\n\n Set time limits that work for you\n\n <\/h3>\n \n
\n Remember, Family Fund gaming fundraising and streaming is about enjoyment, not endurance. Choose a time limit that feels comfortable, whether that’s 30 minutes, an afternoon, or a few sessions spread across the week.\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
\n\n \n \n

\n\n Celebrate your achievement\n\n <\/h3>\n \n
\n Don’t forget to give yourself credit at the end. However big or small your challenge, you’ve raised funds that will make a real difference to families raising disabled or seriously ill children. That’s something to be proud of.\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
