The Harlem Shake Charity Dance Off

I spotted a tweet from Macmillan's CEO Ciaran Devane a few days ago about the Macmillan Fundraising team in Shipley being challenged to do the Harlem Shake for a donation....

  8. So this left me with one question...Who does the Harlem Shake better? RNLI or Macmillan? There was only one way to find out!

    @RNLI @macmillancancer I'm thinking people vote by texting a donation to the charity that they think 'shakes' better...

    RNLI@RNLI
    @LondonKirsty @macmillancancer We think that's a tremendous idea!
