ThoughtShift Summer Party 2018

Posted by Heather

Back bigger and better than last year ThoughtShift certainly showed Brighton how to celebrate this beautiful weather. The team were dressed as a mixture of superhero’s and childhood aspirations of what they wanted to be when they grew up!

Wacky Races

This year we had not one but two themes and let the team’s imagination go wild. We had hotdogs, Top Gun pilots, fireman to Hit Girl and everything in between. First things first we headed off to Q Leisure for a spot of Go-Karting on their fantastic outdoor Go Karting track. Which saw our Top Gun Pilot Rich speed into 1st place, narrowly beating Fireman Alex and Footballer Ryan!

Beach Picnic

What better way to celebrate than with Fish & Chips on the beach for lunch in the glorious sunshine. We were also joined by ThoughtShift unofficial mascot Zuma the Labrador puppy who gave his seal of approval on the chips.

Bellies full it was time for the team to hurtle down Brighton Zip.
