It's a Knockout 2011

Giant inflatables, foam, a dromedary sumo horse and fancy dress were the order of the day when 13 teams from the business community took part in our second It’s a Knockout Charity Challenge at the wonderful Old Albanian Sports Club in St Albans. We had fairies; assassins; mad scientists; tartan terrors; cowboys (and one Indian); Hawaiian hurricanes; chamber pots and superheroes in training, not to mention our own CEO Richard Driscoll in a fetching multi-coloured clown’s wig.

The competition was intense, but victory finally went to Shire’s fuchsia fairies!

A good day was had by all, though, and the adults weren’t the only ones having fun as there were children’s games too.
As well, there were bouncy castles, face painting, mechanical rodeo bull, raffle, tombola and other side stalls to keep the spectators entertained, not to mention a barbeque and bar.

Shire Pharmaceutical's Fuchsia Fairies - 1st Place!

Indications are that a fabulous £10,000 was raised after expenses, and this will help us to make a big difference to the lives of people who are affected by Crohn’s and Colitis.

Huge thanks to everyone who took part in the games, sponsored the teams, cheered them on, volunteered or provided services.

You’re all superstars!

Knockout is great for team-building, raising staff morale and getting businesses known in the community.
