COVID-19 Checkmate raises estimated £10,000

The English Chess Federation tournament on chess.com over the weekend, COVID-19 Checkmate, in aid of the British Red Cross, raised an estimated £10,000. It was a 24-hour Tournament, in which you could enter, dip in and out of, and return to whenever you liked over the 24 hours.
