The KidsOut - Question of Sport, based upon the popular TV quiz

13th October 2011,

Lancashire County Cricket Club, Talbot Road, Old Trafford,Manchester M16 0PX

Hosted by Kevin Connelly, Comedy Impressionist & star of BBC 2's Dead Ringers series


Kids Out.

In 1989, the Littlewoods store in Stockport took disabled children for a day out to the seaside, with help from the local Rotary club who organised transport. The day was so popular that Littlewoods stores up and down the country and Rotary decided to follow suit. Soon, the event was run nationally and helped over 30,000 children.

 

In 1998, KidsOut was founded by a small dedicated group of Rotarians, Littlewoods employees and others to support the Day Out and develop other fun ways to help children and young people. Today, KidsOut is the only UK charity dedicated to bring fun and happiness into the lives of disadvantaged children. And, as every parent knows, that's the most effective way to motivate a young person.

 

Disadvantage comes in many forms:

Poverty: there are four million children in the UK living in poverty.

Poor parenting

Bad housing or being homeless

Disability

Domestic violence or abuse

Being young carers for a parent

Having English as their second language

 

The antidote to award ceremonies! Why you should come along:

KidsOut Question of Sport is a brilliant black-tie evening of corporate entertainment! You and your team will compete to win trophies and special prizes in a fully interactive sports quiz based on the popular TV show.

 

The evening begins with a champagne reception and a four course dinner with wine is served while you take part in the quiz on the big screens. There are a great range of questions, so anyone from the sports expert to the novice can take part.

 

The rounds also include favourites such as 'Guess the Mystery Sportsperson' and 'What Happened Next?' As well as a great quiz there will also be other games and entertainment throughout the night. Entry to the three fun activities we run during the evening - Spot the Ball, Higher or Lower and Russian Quiz Roulette -  can be bought as a Games Package when you order your table or on the night.

 

There are fantastic prizes on offer for the winners and buying a Games Package will guarantee that you and your guests will have a great time!

THANK YOU.

Every year that passes in these young peoples lives, the chance of changing destinies diminishes. Our services work from an early age to broaden their horizons and promote their inclusion in society and fulfilment in life.

 

Everything we do is based on understanding. Understanding children & young people and the reality of their lives is at the heart of what we do. Our understanding is based on what they tell us, the input of our partners who work directly with disabled and disadvantaged kids every day and the experience of our own small staff. Our services are developed in consultation with children, young people, families and front-line workers and then piloted to see if we've got them right. Only then do we seek to roll them out across the country. This ensures that all our services are really effective.

 

We receive no funds from central or local government and rely entirely on voluntary donations and corporate supporters. If you would like to discuss a corporate partnership with KidsOut or find out more about our work or other fund raising events, please email me at the address below. Thank you very much for supporting the KidsOut Question of Sport and bringing smiles onto the faces of disadvantaged children.
