How does it work and what will you need?
First things first, you’re probably eager to know what you need to get started and how it all works. This is a winner takes all Treasure Hunt. Theres no runner up prizes!
The treasure hunt kicks off with a bang by publishing a QR code on the Hinckley Treasure Hunt Facebook page. Keep a sharp eye on the page, as the first QR code can pop up at any random date and time. This QR code will launch you on your quest, leading you to the very first clue. At the same time it'll confirm what prize is up for grabs. Each clue is backed by a local business in Hinckley and Bosworth, adding a touch of community spirit to your adventure.
Types of Clues:
Website Clue
Website clues are on the Hinckley Treasure Hunt website but you'll only find them once you have the link from the previous clue. The website clue will guide you to the next part of your journey.
Physical Clue
Physical clues are waiting for you at businesses with customer-facing premises. Clear instructions will ensure you can easily obtain your clue.
Sponsor Clue
Sponsor clues are nestled within the websites of our sponsor companies, waiting for you to uncover them.
With physical clues to chase, you’ll need some form of transport. But don't worry—clues are designed to be accessible even if you’re using public transport.
Feel free to use any legal means at your disposal to crack the clues and push forward in the hunt.
No purchase is necessary to join in the fun. Once you’ve unravelled the final clue, you’ll discover how to claim your prize. Keep track of the companies sponsoring each clue—you’ll need this info to claim your treasure.
THERE IS ONLY 1 PRIZE FOR EACH HUNT. ONCE CLAIMED IT CAN'T BE CLAIMED AGAIN. THE FIRST TO CLAIM IT CORRECTLY GETS IT.
Disclaimer: Participation in the treasure hunt is completely optional and free of charge. Please note that no reimbursement of expenses will be provided.
