Charity
Quicksilva are a generous bunch. We raise money for various charities in a number of ways which include themed dress days; "Wear it Pink" for Breast Cancer Campaign and the "Red Sports Day" for Comic Relief. We’ve also been known to run regular sweepstakes, wash cars, do sponsored bike rides, make lunches, and make our male staff yelp with pain from leg waxing, with all proceeds going to charity. Not only that but....
Microsoft UK Team Challenge
Since 2002 Quicksilva have entered a corporate team into the Microsoft UK Team Challenge. We believe our culture and personnel thrive on foresight, energy and sharp decision making and what better way to demonstrate our abilities than to compete against the UK’s biggest corporate companies in what is billed as ’the UK’s greatest team building adventure’.
