MediCinema to Benefit from Flight Club’s Charity World Record Attempt
MediCinema is set to benefit from an upcoming event which includes a world record attempt by Flight Club, the home of Social Darts, in celebration of their 10th birthday.
Recently nominated by employees at the Bloomsbury branch of Flight Club, London, MediCinema have become one of 21 charities to benefit from the Yellow Ball Foundation, the charitable organisation set up by Red Engine, the company behind Flight Club and Electric Shuffle.
Join the Event
The two-day charity event which will see the attempt for the longest bullseye – 8 metres – will also include live DJs, street food, games and prizes with any successful attempt receiving a £1,000 bar tab. You can head down between 12pm – 10pm and stay for the atmosphere, fantastic food and drinks, as well as the chance to step up to the oche and take on the World Record!
When: 1–2 Oct | 12–10pm
Where: Clerkenwell Fire Station, London EC1R 4RN
How much: £5 for 5 attempts with all proceeds going to charity – including MediCinema!
Beyond the Dart Board
Every year, employees of Red Engine nominate local charities close to their hearts to become beneficiaries of The Yellow Ball Foundation.
Over the next 12 months, the Flight Club Bloomsbury team have committed to fundraise for MediCinema through a combination of in-branch donations and team challenges.
We will also welcome the Yellow Ball Foundation team to our MediCinema at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital as part of their ‘Follow that Fire Engine’ tour of beneficiaries and UK-wide charity tournaments.
"Our venue team felt there was a similarity between the Flight Club motto 'unexpected, ridiculous joy,' and the cause of MediCinema, which wants to bring the joy of cinema to people going through moments of huge physical and psychological distress. We aim to help MediCinema expand its reach, enhance the patient experience, and support the sustainability of their innovative hospital cinemas. Through fundraising and employee engagement we strive to make a positive impact on MediCinema’s purpose."

It’s a real honour to have been chosen by the Flight Club team at Bloomsbury and we are so excited to be part of such dynamic and fun events in aid of our charity. We are excited about our partnership and what we will be able to achieve together.
