Businesses and charities invited to compete in Scarborough 'Mind Games' community sports day

Mind Games is a brand-new, action-packed sports day which will take place on Saturday July 26 at Bramcote Athletic Track.

Designed to bring the community together through fun and friendly competition, Mind Games will encourage teams of 8 to 10 people from local businesses, charities and community organisations to take part in a range of classic sports day events – all while raising funds for the causes they care about.

Participants will compete in nostalgic events, including the egg and spoon race, sack race, relay race, welly wanging, and an epic tug of war.

Fancy dress is encouraged, with prizes awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place overall, plus best dressed team.

“Mind Games is about connection, community and having a laugh while doing something positive,” said Hayley Doubtfire, Funding and Communications Coordinator at SWR Mind.

“This event brings people together in the spirit of teamwork, wellbeing and fun – whether they’re supporting SWR Mind or another charity that matters to them.”

Team registration is now open via the SWR Mind website. Entry is just £50 per team, with at least 50% of the entry fee supporting SWR Mind’s vital local mental health services.

Teams are also welcome to fundraise for SWR Mind or another registered charity of their choice.
