The inspHire Team
inspHire Charity Dragon Boat Race
16th Aug 2011
inspHires Dragon Boat Race
inspHire thoroughly enjoyed taking part, for the second year running, in the charity organised Dragon Boat Race
that was held in August here in Nottingham.
Gable events did a great job in organising the 38 different companies that took part in helping raise money for 'Rainbows hospice for Children and Young People' and everyone was in high spirits, battling it out against one another.
inspHire dressed to impress following a 'Rock and Roll' theme with Managing Director Graham Dobbs in an Elvis head mask and the ladies of inspHire in polka dot skirts. Competing in three separate races, inspHire improved in
speed each time and on the final race inspHire managed to break a company record and get under the minute mark.
After the 3rd race inspHire got knocked out and unfortunately didn't make it to the semi finals however inspHire beat last years position and came 19th place out of 38 teams - cracking effort from everyone involved and everyone that came down to watch inspHire battle it out and support the inspHire team ' Mental Rental!'
inspHire 99 Red Balloons
19th Jul 2011

inspHire's red balloon race competition at Vertikal days 2011 proved to be a great success when customer Alan Livingston from ‘Lifting Gear UK’ balloon was found in Warrington.
Visitors to the inspHire stand at Vertikal days 2011 event were asked to complete tickets attached to the balloons which were then released in the afternoon of the second day of the event by John Ball, MD of Easi Uplifts and Graham Dobbs and Karen Miles of inspHire to celebrate the recent launch of inspHire-iX, the iPhone and iPad App for inspHire users on the move.
Graham Dobbs commented “Feed back from our customers who have already installed inspHire-iX has been overwhelming. The main benefit, they say, comes from their sales team being in an informed position and having the information they need, when they are out on the road dealing with customers. “
Alan Livingston was awarded an iPod Touch for the inspHire balloon that travelled the furthest, along with the founder of the balloon winning a £25.00 Amazon voucher - well done to both participants!
A big thank you to everyone that visited the inspHire stand and took part in the balloon race
