Team Building Challenge: Survive Amersham!

We’ve created all our own team building exercises. They are unique to Elsewhere and we run them at all of our corporate retreats.

A video plays to your team showing a freak incoming storm. We need to prepare you and rescue the Elsewhere team that got caught in the storm.

We break your group into teams that under-go a series of tasks in order to plan and prepare for the worst – and to ultimately locate the Elsewhere team and rescue them.

Teams are given a rucksack; containing a map, a sheet of tasks with grid refs and a CB radio (everyone loves talking on the radio).

The required tasks are:

-Land Rover training and pulling a tree

-Follow the Youtube trail and get the Kendal Mint cake

-Get to the emergency cooking equipment stand

-Light a fire (with no matches) and prepare and cook a meal

-Build a shelter and make a rescue flag

-Drop everything and embark on the time sensitive- High St poncho challenge

Over the session teams figure out where the Elsewhere team are located and head over. The team that found them within time (and scored the highest) are today’s winners and are presented with bottles of champagne.

It must be time for a drink!

Survive Hurley, Survive Norfolk and Survive Henley is also available 😊

More on Elsewhere’s Team Exercises

We’ve created all our own team experiences. They are unique to Elsewhere and we run them at all of our corporate retreats.

The watch-words for us are fun, authenticity and originality.
Find 2-4 hours at your offsite to get the energy levels up and have some fun.
We like to break you into smaller teams that collaborate or compete head to head.

Our big outdoor activities include Master Chef: Farmyard Edition challenge where teams have to find a cow and milk it, make butter, drive the tractor, collect the eggs and find the goat for some goat yoga.

And during Survive Amersham, teams are given CB radios and their tasks include cracking the morse code, building shelters, finding the fish and creating a meal (but not before Elsewhere’s famous fish-selfie), lighting a fire with no matches and creating a flag from bed sheets.

There’s lots more going on with both of these challenges and our team activities can last from 90 minutes up to 4 hours- all dependent on which team session you go for and how it needs to work with your schedule.
