**McVitie’s Jaffa Cakes has raised £46,000 this year for Marie Curie through a series
of action-packed outdoor events.**

The Northern Ireland McVitie’s Jaffa Cakes Mud Madness events take place twice yearly,
and see both children and adult participants making their way through a series of
muddy obstacles.

[Registration](http://www.mud-madness.com) is now open for next year’s events which
will see McVitie’s hold four events across two days in April, with two McVitie’s
Jaffa Cakes Mini Mud Madness for the under 16s taking place on 16th April, and two
further events on 17th April for those over 16. Participants have to walk, run, 
fall, wade and dive through a range of muddy obstacles.
