Charities and good causes are relying more and more on the goodwill of the public and supporters to keep them going. We know. The majority of our own staff give of their time and talents to support good causes.
With so much competition for limited resources, raising funds can be a major challenge.
Running a treasure hunt is a fun and novel way to raise money to donate to your favourite charity, good cause, local school or preferred project.
The flexibility of treasure hunts make them suitable for all ages and abilities - and a custom-made treasure hunt from X Marks The Spot can take place when and where you want on foot or by car.
By charging teams to take part or sponsoring based on the number of clues correctly answered, it's an effective way to raise that much-needed cash.
Sometimes people are tempted to put together their own treasure hunt to 'save money'. Our experience suggests that doing it on the cheap is a false economy, as a professionally devised and run fundraising treasure hunt will attract more interest leaving your charity better off in net terms.
If you're passionate about a charity or local project, find out what X Marks The Spot can do for you.

“Just wanted to let you know that despite having to battle with probably one of the most miserable days of the year last Wednesday, where it just rained relentlessly all day and night, the London South Bank treasure hunt you designed still went ahead and was a great success. We had nine teams of five participate, and return heroically to the pub dripping wet but smiling. Thanks very much to you and your team for your efforts and your professionalism”
