Luckily for our technician Jay, it's all for charity! We and our partner company String Systems Ltd are very passionate about raising money for Rainbow Hub, a genuinely amazing charity dedicated to improving the lives of disabled children and their families.

The JustGiving page for Jay's 'trial by sponges' is still open for donations, so if you would like to contribute towards Rainbow Hub and the great work they do, you can do so here:
