Carrenza Wii Sport Challenge
We knew something had to be done to raise cash for the 2008 Sport Relief campaign, but we are not really your jogging in the rain sort of team so we had to look for a way of doing sport and staying warm dry and entertained.
Elaine who is in charge of this sort of clever idea suggested mounting a Wii sports challenge - go-karts and wrestling were discarded – so a call to our friends at Nintendo and we had blagged the use of a swanky Wii Kiosk. More help from our Landlord, who lent us the foyer and from the team at BD NTWK who look after Nintendo’s Direct Marketing and we had a challenge. Have fun and raise money for Sport Relief all in without leaving the building!
It was a huge success, people came up with all manner of excuses for not being at their desks working hard, lunchbreaks stretched and we managed to raise over £600 and pulled muscles with over enthusiastic Wii boxing.
Sport Relief is a brilliant cause and a great way to raise money, we will be back next time round, but in the mean time you can always slip them a tenner or whatever you can manage, just pop over to http://donate.sportrelief.com with you card ready.
