Clipso Go Karting Challenge Raises Funds for HABB

Clipso have raised more than £700 for industry charity HABB by organising a Go Karting Challenge Cup for hair salons, manufacturers, distributors and software companies.
With places on the podium as well as prizes for the most spectacular crash and fastest lap of the day up for grabs, each of the 21 teams were striving to prove their credentials as the next Lewis Hamilton.
But it wasn't all about having fun - the day was designed to raise money for HABB - and everyone who took part made a £30 donation to charity, while Clipso's central training team, who were unable to attend, donated a further £100.
After a tense one-and-a-half hour of racing round the track the top three teams who made it to the podium were:
- 3rd Clipso
- 2nd Clipso
- 1st Wonderful Hair
Russell McGrath, Clipso Watford Manager and Clipso Go-Karting Challenge Cup organiser said; "The go-karting challenge was yet again a resounding success.
"Everyone had fun; there was some good healthy rivalry going on too and all in the aid of charity.
"We managed to raise a substantial donation for HABB and are now just looking forward to hosting the event next year."
