Team Building in Derby
Derby is a city on the banks of the River Derwent in Derbyshire. It is generally viewed as the most centrally located city in the UK, making it a very popular conference and team building event destination. There are many excellent conference and event venues to choose from. The city has a great deal of history evident in its buildings, including Roman and Viking influences. The gothic Derby Cathedral is just one of the locations that can appear in one of our city Treasure Hunts. Derby is also known as the historic centre of the Industrial Revolution, and to this day the city is known for engineering excellence. It is home to the legendary Rolls-Royce, known for both car and aerospace engineering. Which of our team building events would appeal in this location? There is a Derby cocktail, but this comes from the city’s namesake in the USA. Cocktail Making is a very popular team building event. We bring mobile bars and all of the ingredients required to make delicious alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails. Our experienced mixologists will oversee your event, teaching the recipes of some of the famous cocktails. This works particularly well as pre-dinner entertainment. Your team will learn skills and recipes that they can take home to liven up any social occasion.

Another option is our Crime Scene Investigation team building event. This is great fun and completely immersive. You will get really involved in the investigation which includes a crime scene. You put on overalls, overshoes, and gloves to avoid contaminating the crime scene. Next, it is time to look for evidence. We provide various chemicals and testing equipment so you can establish whether, for example, a stain is blood. Then, there are the interviews, or cross-examinations. Two suspects played by experienced role-play actors must be questioned as you establish alibis and motives, and compare stories. Will you catch the murderer, pinning them down with forensic evidence? If Derby is the home to Rolls-Royce, then maybe our Rollercoaster team building event is an apt choice for a conference in this location. We provide all of the equipment for the construction of a Rollercoaster. Each team builds their stage, and then all of the stages are connected as the whole group attempts to transport a ball around the room without touching it by human hand. Teams can earn extra points for flourishes like loops and jumps, and the inventive contraptions that result from this entertaining exercise are fitting tributes to Derby’s engineering heritage!
