Ten charities have received a share of £11,000 raised by local business people through a major team building event.

The third Knot a Sports Day took place at University of Staffordshire in June, with over 250 people from different businesses taking part.

Activities included an obstacle course, go karts and powerball.

Funds raised will be split between Gingerbread Family Support, The Alice Charity, The Hubb Foundation, Port Vale FC Foundation, Stoke City FC Foundation, Brake, North Staffs Linkline, Horizon Fund, Symmetrical North Staffs and AED Donate.

Fiona Hawkins, managing director of Plinkfizz and one of the event’s organisers, said: “We’re delighted to support so many worthwhile charities with Knot a Sports Day.

“£11,000 is an incredible amount, and we’d like to thank all the organisations who have donated and supported.

“We’d also like to thank all the participants, sponsors and volunteers who have worked so hard to bring the event to life.”

The day was won by Stoke-on-Trent-based accountancy and business advisers DJH.
