FAQs

What is team building?

Activities and exercises designed to help people improve how they work together as a team.
“Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success” – Henry Ford.

Does it work?
Yes, yes, yes, yes – and yes! For more on this, go to team building theory and practice. In our activities, experiential learning is the key. You learn by doing and receive support and advice while this happens. The result? Success.

Team building FAQsWhere do Team Building events take place?
Mainly in the South East but also all over the UK. And we’ve traveled abroad on many occasions. As we’re based in London, the further away from the capital you wants us to go, the more we charge.

Do we have to book a venue?
We can arrange the venue for you or bring what we do to a venue you’ve chosen. It doesn’t have to be a conference hotel. It can be your office, a community centre, village hall, a country park, a school, a sports ground, a film studio… as long as the space works, we’ll go there.

How long do your team building events last?
Anything from an hour to three days.

What makes you different from other companies?
Experience. Creativity. Adaptability. Good results. Happy customers.

Do you have a particular way of doing things?
Most of our corporate events are about people, not gadgets or equipment. Our highly experienced, very professional actors/facilitators are entertaining to be with and good at getting everyone involved.

What kind of activities do you run?
A wide range of energisers, trading games, team building exercises, murder mysteries, treasure hunts, spy games, film making days, promotional activities and specific training days.

What more information can you give me?
We have detailed descriptions and running orders of everything we do. Let us know what you’re interested in and we’ll send these to you. And post a comment below if you have any team building FAQs you’d like to put to us.

How much do you charge?
Our prices compare well with those of other companies. There are always many “variables” (where, how far away, how many people, timings, etc.). Expect to pay anything from a few £hundred for some simple icebreakers and motivational games to many £thousands for a wholly bespoke event. For more on this, please go to team building prices.

Who have you worked for?
Many big organisations and businesses as well as much smaller outfits and some private parties. For more, please go here.

Do you have any references?
Plenty. Here are a few testimonials and pieces of feedback. We have plenty more we can show you.

How do we book?
When you decide you want to go ahead, we’ll get a Booking Form over to you. Signing and returning it to us will confirm your booking.

How far ahead do we need to book?
Depends on how many of you there are, how busy we are and what you want to do. Earlier is always better although we have sometimes stepped in at the very last minute when a group has been let down by another company. A phone call in the morning, running a murder mystery that same evening – it has happened!.

What if numbers change?
Happens all the time. Shouldn’t be a problem. The more warning we have about any changes, the better – but we are used to coping with almost anything.
