Team Building in Derby FAQs

Yes. We come to you across Derby and Derbyshire, including Belper, Ilkeston, Ripley and Ashbourne. Everything the activity needs travels with the team.
Most Derby events run at your own office or a room you already use, and we also work in local hotels and function rooms, with treasure hunts and outdoor games using the city and the riverside. If you need a space, we will find one.
On our enquiry data, Derby's requests spread evenly, with several tied at the top: Qubed, the Betrayers, the Ultimate Treasure Hunt and chocolate making. The pick that stands out is the Haka Challenge, a Maori-warrior-led energiser.
Yes, and it is free. Our venue finding service books a room for your group and part of Derby, and the venue pays us a commission, so you pay the same as booking direct.
Our lowest-priced activities start at around £18 per person, with the total down to the activity, your numbers and the length. Tell us the group size and a full quote follows, usually within 30 minutes.
Two to three hours suits most, easily an afternoon. Join a couple together for a half or full day.
From around six up to several hundred. A small team runs one activity; a larger Derby group runs in heats or side by side, staffed to keep it moving.
A couple of weeks is usually enough. Summer and December are the busy windows, so book those sooner, but shorter notice is often fine.
For a large Derby group, the Ultimate Treasure Hunt and a corporate sports day both scale well. The treasure hunt sends teams across the city, and a sports day runs plenty of stations at once.
Yes. Qubed, the Betrayers, the Ultimate Treasure Hunt and chocolate making all run indoors, so winter weather never changes the plan.
Yes. We have delivered team building for companies from AstraZeneca to KPMG, and as an ABTA member business rated Excellent on Trustpilot, a Derby booking sits on the same record.

I wasn't actually at the event, but I've heard great things so it seemed to go great!
