Myton’s bigger and better It’s a Knockout event returns

THERE is just over a month until The Myton Hospice’s annual It’s a Knockout event returns.

It’s back for 2022 – bigger and better than before and featuring an amazing line-up of six fabulous brand new games.

And the charity, which provides care and support, free of charge, to people living with terminal illnesses across Coventry and Warwickshire, is calling on businesses across the region to sign up for what is promising to be ‘a fantastic afternoon of fun, foam and fundraising’.

It’s a Knockout takes place on the afternoon of Friday, June 24 at Leamington Rugby Club and will feature six all-new games: Hats On, Perilous Pendulum, Crazy Climber, Giant Obstacle Course, Pizza Run and All Hands on Deck. The event has been kindly sponsored by Squab Removals.

Chris Willmott, Corporate Fundraiser at Myton Hospices, said: “We’re delighted to be back after a Covid-enforced break and hope our amazing corporate supporters, old and new, will sign up to what is a truly fantastic afternoon of fun, foam and fundraising.

“We’ve hand-picked the very best offerings from the IAK catalogue – based on feedback from previous year’s teams – and are proud to be offering a jam-packed afternoon of team-building at its very best as intrepid competitors battle it out for the title of Myton’s It’s a Knockout Champions 2022. We hope to see you there.”

Entry costs just £45 per person (£360 per team of eight) for a funfilled afternoon supporting an incredible cause. Myton also ask teams to collectively raise a further £380 in sponsorship - whether this is through bake sales, something out of the ordinary or simply by family and friends sponsoring people to take part.

The last outing of It’s a Knockout in 2019 was so popular that all 36 team places were snapped up in record time – so participants are urged to make sure they sign up as early to avoid disappointment.
