Hunt is on for most faithful Teessider as event inspired by hit BBC TV show coming to Middlesbrough
A Teesside version of BBC's The Traitors is coming to the area.
Middlesbrough-based Teesside Hospice has launched a new event inspired by the popular game show – and is on the hunt for the most faithful Teessider. 'Teesside Traitors' will see 20 people come together and compete for the title of Teesside's most faithful in the new event, which is modelled on the hit BBC series and will take place on Friday, October 10.
Held at Project Escape in Middlesbrough, participants will complete missions and test their strategy skills in a range of deceitful activities – all while trying to hunt out the traitors from the faithful. Community and Events Manager Tilly Roberts said: 'If you're a fan of the Traitors show in particular, this event is not one to be missed.

'We're calling on people in the region to come together to enjoy something unique while also supporting an important cause. The event will closely mirror the TV show and game, with a few twists and turns to keep you on your toes.'
Teesside Hospice provides care for people with life-limiting illnesses, and their families, through a specialist In-Patient Unit, bereavement support, wellbeing centre and Lymphoedema Clinic. It costs around £6.75 million each year to run these services, over 70% of which the charity needs to raise itself through donations and events such as Teesside Traitors.
Tilly continued: 'Events are a huge part of our fundraising for the hospice and we're always trying to drum up new ways for people to get involved with our charity and support the local people who use our services. With the launch of Teesside Traitors, we're excited to bring everyone together to give the hospice a vital boost, while also having lots of fun – and a bit of treachery!
'Will you join us at the roundtable and help raise vital funds and awareness for Teesside Hospice?' To find out more about Teesside Hospice and Teesside Traitors, visit All proceeds will go towards the hospice's services.
