Radio 1's #1MillionHours Christmas Party
It's happened! Our campaign has hit 1 MILLION hours! 🎉😮👏
To celebrate we threw a Christmas party with the Radio 1 presenters, with lots of festive delights including a rap battle between two presenters, a seasonal Live Lounge and a very special Innuendo Bingo 🎄🎉
We kicked things off with a rap battle between Matt Edmondson and Alice Levine (warning: serious flows ahead)
Radio 1 Christmas Party Rap Battle: Alice Levine Vs Matt Edmondson
Now this is going to be good... or maybe the opposite of that.
We weren't the only ones impressed by Matt and Alice's bars...
The bar had been set high by the rap battle, but then Calum Scott dropped by for a festive Live Lounge 🎄
Megan summed it up pretty well for us 👍
Our next party game was Innuendo Bingo 💦💦 (yep, that's Father Chris Stark-mas going head to head with the R1 presenters)
6 vs 1 as Radio 1's DJ's destroy Chris playing Christmas Innuendo Bingo!
This is going to get out of hand!
After that, all that remained was to REVEAL THE TOTAL. Did we reach a million? 😨😨😨
YES WE DID! 🎉🎉🎉
THANK YOU so much to all our amazing listeners who pledged their time.
We hope you agree that the Radio 1 Christmas party has been total jokes - but of course we haven't forgotten why did all this. We started #1MillionHours to make a difference to people's lives. Here's what happened when some of our DJs met people who have been helped by volunteers.
Scott & Lou: "Sometimes it's a bit difficult, especially at Christmastime"
Scott meets 94 year old Louise who, thanks to Age UK, now has a regular visitor.
Clara meets Drew & Solomon: "It's a really positive force of change in your life"
Barnardo’s volunteer Drew tells Clara about being a big brother for Solomon to talk to.
It's not too late to get involved! Click here to pledge your time to some amazing causes. #2MillionHours anyone...?
