 | Emma B.( 20s, Female, London )One idea that could work is People Bingo. You just need to find out some random facts about the guests that are coming to the event. When guests arrive they are given a list of weird & wonderful things about other guests in the room. They then have to find the corresponding person to that fact and the first one to complete them all wins – an extra incentive for mingling should you offer a prize.

 | Naomi H.( 20s, Female, United Kingdom )An ice breaker would definitely break up the cliques a bit, yeah. A speed dating session could work nicely, and mix everyone up a bit – having to spend 3 minutes talking to someone before moving on to the next person. Or a game of famous pairs will get them out of their seat and talking to different people, too. As they enter, give each delegate a piece of paper with one half of a pair on it (eg Hob or Nob) and they have to find their partner in the room. It tends to create more of a buzz (and takes longer to complete!) the more people / pairs you have, too.

 | Lisa H.( 30s, Female, United Kingdom )Emma, That is a great idea. I think we should make sure we do this soon at one of the tweet ups. Wonder what my weird and wonderful fact would be…
