An online auction of celebrity doodles has raised £12,412 for Epilepsy Action and
The Neurofibromatosis Association.
A total of 277 doodles, drawn in aid of National
Doodle Day on March 3, were sold after 10 days of bidding on eBay. The top seller
was former world and Olympic figure skating champion Robin Cousins, whose doodle
of a pair of ice skates went for £908.

the chance to win an interactive white board for their school. Businesses, brownie
packs and sports clubs are also being encouraged to hold their own National Doodle
Day competitions.
