Our Package Includes:

  The Games 

The Challenge takes the form of a series of  ‘larger than life’ games where teams compete against one another to win points. The team with the most points at the end is the winner.

In general the games take the form of huge inflatable's, massive costumes and many use lots of water and foam to add to the excitement and increase the difficulty of the individual challenges. You will get wet and changing facilities will be available, but bring your own towel.

  Team Challenge 

A team is normally six to ten participants and we will team up individual competitors to create these teams. The contest will consist of up to twelve teams competing over at least six games / challenges to gain the most points. Normally, three teams will compete head-to-head at each game against the clock.

   The Prizes 

There is a Trophies and medals for the winning teams plus everyone who completes the challenge will be presented with a commemorative certificate.

In addition to this everyone who takes part will receive one of our exclusive Hospice T-Shirts. You can wear these when you take part in the challenge, but you may wish to consider wearing your companies T-shirts (for a suitable donation of course)!

   The Cost 

To take part in the challenge each competitor must pledge to raise at least £100 in sponsorship from this we will ask you for a £10 deposit to help cover our costs in arranging the challenge and the balance of your sponsorship (£90) is due to be paid on the day of the challenge but this can be in the form of a post dated cheque dates one month after the event (29 July).
