Fundraising Info

The Box Kart Bash is intended to be a family fun day for the benefit of local community. It is held before the summer holidays so that it gives families and individuals a project throughout the spring and longer days, and allows schools and other groups to work on their karts before the summer holidays.

The popularity and fun of the event means that it’s a great platform to raise money for good causes. This year we have a target of £20,000 – Remember it’s all done for charity. All of us involved in running it are volunteers.

We recommend a target of at least to £200 for each team that participates. If you have four people in your team, that is £50 each.

We believe this is easily achievable and expect most of you will raise much more for your nominated charity.

You can help to reach this target in three easy ways:
