Northern Ireland New Members’ Careers Social, Prison Island | BELFAST | IN-PERSON

Hosted by the CIWEM Northern Ireland New Members' Group

Event description

This is a social event for early career professionals in Northern Ireland. We will be going to Prison Island to do their one hour experience and then get pizza afterwards.

Prison Island is an exciting concept with 31 challenge cells inspired by the ‘Crystal Maze’. The cells contain a great mix of Mental Physical & Skill based games. All teams play in the Prison at the same time competing for the highest points, with three to four players per team. The more cells your team completes the more points your team gets!
