Recruitment agency set to sponsor iconic gameshow in aid of mental health charity
Pertemps Network Group has been announced as the sponsor of It’s a Knockout, supporting the event for the second consecutive year.
Organised by the Kaleidoscope Plus Group (KPG), a charity that has championed mental health for over 50 years, the tournament brings businesses together for a day of fun, teamwork, and purpose.
Pertemps Network Group, based in Meriden, West Midlands, is one of the UK’s largest privately-owned recruitment agencies. It has a turnover of nearly £1bn and offers immediate and strategic solutions to clients across both the public and private sectors.
Often described as the “grand-daddy of corporate team events,” It’s A Knockout sees teams compete in a series of high-energy, collaborative challenges using the original props and costumes from the iconic BBC TV show.
The result is a unique, inclusive and unforgettable experience that encourages participation, teamwork and laughter—all while supporting an important cause.
Carmen Watson, chairperson of the Pertemps Network Group, said: “KPG have made great strides in encouraging employers to think about the mental health of their employees and make wellbeing a priority in the workplace.
“This is something Pertemps wholeheartedly agrees with. We were delighted to support the inaugural It’s A Knockout tournament last year—a fresh event that gets teams away from the office and into the fresh air for a fantastic day of collaborative fun, while also helping to support a local mental health charity.”
Calum Nisbet, CEO of Kaleidoscope Plus Group, added: “The success of the inaugural event means that this year’s will be bigger and better, and we’re delighted that Pertemps have once again shown their support for what we’re trying to achieve.
“We are incredibly grateful.”
It’s A Knockout 2026 will take place at Avery Fields in Birmingham on 24 June.
Ideal for team-building and corporate entertaining, teams of 10 can enter for £1,250, which includes all games, lunch and refreshments.
