Congratulations to our 2025 Suffolk Sports Day champions – BT

Thank you to all the teams who took part in our 2025 Suffolk Sports Day on Thursday 18th September.

Home-Start Suffolk’s third corporate sports day event saw almost 120 staff from 12 teams compete against each other at Trinity Park for the coveted title of Suffolk Sports Day 2025 champions, raising more than £7,500.

The day kicked off with traditional sports day races, followed by a team building challenge where teams were challenged to build the tallest freestanding tower using just paperclips and newspapers which were kindly donated by the East Anglian Daily Times.

Following this, teams competed in a game of rounders and took on individual challenges which including activities such as axe throwing, climbing, croquet, golf, rowing, netball and esports.

All money raised will help the charity to continue empowering parents across Suffolk with the aim of creating a society where children are given the best start in life.
