You can pick up a entry level helmet from a motorbike shop for £30+, and then may get you doing more track days as well.

good point, however most trackdays insist that you wear a Crash helmet conforming to BS6658 Type A ( blue & white BSI sticker), AFR ( red & white BSI sticker) or Snell SA2000.
most motorcycle helmets are not conforming as they have a different type of use standard applied !
you can buy proper conforming helmets for around £70 from demon tweeks etc
the ones rented out are generally in very good condition, are sanitised before, and you can wear a under helmet balaclava underneath if you have lice or greasy hair
