Team Building in Coventry
The city of Coventry in the West Midlands is the ninth largest city in England by population. It is known for the 11-hour Luftwaffe bombing raid in the Second World War which intended to wipe the city out as it was a major wartime production centre. The old Cathedral was destroyed and has been replaced with a modern building. Much of the city centre has been regenerated. As a result of this, there are more than 50 parks and green spaces in the city, making it an excellent location for our urban roaming team building events such as the Hidden Quest Treasure Hunt. Coventry is the birthplace of the British car industry; the Daimler Motor Company was launched there in 1896, and a scene from a film that is close to our heart was filmed on the city’s ring road. It is the scene in The Italian Job in which a Mini is chased by a bus, and you can see many of the city’s landmarks in the background. On the subject of racing, our F1 Challenge is a great team building event that can be brought to Coventry. We provide a pre-made chassis and the aim is to build an F1 racer using the materials we provide and race it in traditional soap-box racer style.
