The #VirtualPubCrawl was started by Hartlepool man Rob Dignen over Easter Bank Holiday weekend.
This was posted as an appeal on our website and very quickly two donations were made which fully funded the purchase.
Twitter’s fortnightly #VirtualPubCrawl was created by Hartlepool man Rob Dignen and has grown beyond his expectations, reaching people around the world and raising over £6,000 for Alice House Hospice.
Rob started the virtual get-together over Easter Bank Holiday, when he would have normally gone out with friends and it quickly took off with people from all over the UK and beyond who have enjoyed sharing music, selfies and speaking together on Twitter.
The online gathering has so far raised almost £5,000 from just three events, since the Hospice was named as its chosen charity in May.
The VPC takes place once every fortnight and Twitter users can chat to each other and post selfies using the hashtag #VirtualPubCrawl and following its founder, Rob Dignen @indierob9
