Hello to all Trainers, Consultants and L&D Specialists!
There is plenty happening at Northgate Training - here’s what’s new.
Our 2026 Catalogue is On Its Way
Our brand-new 2026 Catalogue is landing soon! Inside you’ll find exciting NEW games - Psychological Safety, The Power of Delegation and Values & Integrity - alongside many of your favourite tried-and-tested activities. If you’d like an early look, here’s the digital version. And if you’d like to receive a printed copy, simply click here to join the mailing list.
Cave System Rescue - Now with a Definitive Outcome
Our popular Cave System Rescue game continues to challenge teams to make decisions under pressure and reveal who naturally steps forward to lead. We’ve now enhanced the activity with a clearly-defined “right answer” - adding even more depth to the learning and debrief. If you have a licence for this activity, the materials are now available on your Hub dashboard.
Lost in the Wilderness - New Observer Tool & Scoresheet Added
We’ve introduced a new Observer’s Form and Scoresheet (for rating participants’ efforts) to accompany Lost in the Wilderness! - making it even stronger for assessment and structured feedback. These new resources are available to download now from your Hub dashboard if you have this activity.
Now Even More Flexible: Online Team Delivery
We’re excited to announce that one of our most popular games Decisions! Decisions! is now available in fully online team-based format. Each team can use a laptop to analyse information and submit their decisions digitally - all overseen by the Trainer via their own live dashboard. This game also retains its original face-to-face format, giving you complete delivery flexibility to run the same high-impact simulation in the classroom / fully online / or in hybrid settings.
A Timeless Favourite: Cleopatra’s Gold!
We were reminded this week just how powerful Cleopatra's Gold! is for strengthening essential teamwork skills. Perfect for assessing group interaction, the activity includes some simple calculations - but it’s attention to detail that often determines success. A fantastic way to surface real teamwork behaviours and learning points.
Still Going Strong: The Power of Teams
Our fastest seller last year, The Power of Teams, continues to be a firm favourite. Short, snappy and highly practical, it’s a great investment at £199 (+ delivery & VAT). Suitable for Trainers or Managers, it helps increase team cohesion and efficiency in the workplace.

All the best from
- Mike Lynch & the Northgate Team
