WAYPOINT CREW x CHICKEN RUSH | SUMMER SOCIAL FOR MIND
About this Event
🐔 CHICKEN RUSH x WAYPOINT CREW | SUMMER SOCIAL FOR MIND
Waypoint Crew is London’s close-knit, adventure-loving crew for like-minded legends in their 20s–40s. Big hikes, belly laughs, post-walk pints, and pushing yourself a little further each time. We’re all about real friendships, unforgettable weekends, better mental health, and saying yes to more life.
This summer, we’re flapping with excitement to team up with the eggstraordinary team at Chicken Rush to bring you the ultimate outdoor social in support of Mind. Big love to Chicken Rush for turning our slightly silly summer vision into something clucking brilliant!
London can be a lonely city, so we’re hatching an event to get people outdoors, meeting new faces, and supporting mental health - all with a very generous dose of silliness.
🐓 What is Chicken Rush?
Chicken Rush is a fast-paced, clue-solving, pub-hopping adventure where you and your team will race across Hackney to track down your wonderful Waypoint hiking guides — Beth and Jon - in full chicken costume. Yes, really.
Armed with only your phone, street smarts, and unshakeable determination, you’ll crack clues, earn points, unlock secret locations, and try to out-sprint the flock to the final roost.
First team to find the chickens wins a prize. And eternal glory, obviously.
Expect:
✅ Hilarious clues and bonkers challenges
✅ Pub stops and social vibes
✅ Competitive energy, flapping feathers, and potential chicken dance-offs
✅ An eggcellent evening for a cracking cause
❓ How does it work?
- Gather the squad (We’ll sort this)
- Chicken select (Also done – Beth and Jon are your chickens)
- The Escape – The chickens run off to hide, with a 5-minute head start
- The Circle – Chickens are tracked via GPS, with a large circle around their location
- The Shrink – The circle tightens every 2 minutes, narrowing down the hiding spot
- Where’s that chicken? – Teams race to the hiding spot (hint: it’s a pub or bar)
- Drinks Lottery – Enter the wrong pub? You'll need to get yourself a drink!
- The Rush – First team to find the chicken wins 100 points
- Cheeky Challenges – Earn bonus points by completing hilarious tasks

Terms & Conditions
🐔 Please note: This is a charity event brought to you by Chicken Rush x Waypoint Crew. We’re here to lay the groundwork for a cracking good time, but we're not liable for anything that happens once the pub crawl begins. That includes rogue dance moves, overenthusiastic clucking, or mistaking a real chicken for your team leader. This event is for over-18s only. You flap at your own risk.
