Team Building Events
We know how important it is to deliver meaningful team building days and events is to your company and in turn how a productive day can lead to an increase in results.
A well planned team building event can bring a team together and forge relationships that can thrive in the work place and lead to a productive team.
As well as the business benefits that can be gained from the event it will give your employees the chance to relax away from the office and explore a new city or enjoy a picturesque background
A range of our top ideas for team building events around the UK include...
Dragon Boat Racing Experience
Dragon Boat racing is a wonderfully colourful and exciting way of getting staff out of the office, in a highly competitive, adrenalin pumping team activity.
Perfect for competitors for those fast and furious bursts of energy over short distances, but also fantastic for the spectators.
Before getting into their dragon boat for the first time, participants are encouraged to contribute to an open discussion on the most effective way to work as a team and paddle their boat as fast as possible.
After some practice on the water, team members are asked to appraise each other constructively in order to improve communication, teamwork and build on each person’s individual strengths - these are all important techniques that can be applied directly back in the work place.
In addition to the dragon boat racing your team can engage in a number of activities during the day including clay pigeon shooting, archery and falconry.
Euro Events London recently organised a very well received dragon boat racing day at Dorney Lake, just out side Windsor.
A selection of photos and videos from the day can be seen here. Please contact a member of our team if you would like to organise your own dragon boat day.
The Big Bake Challenge
The UK has been taken over by a baking craze, mainly due to one of the country's most popular TV shows.
Your team building baking day will take inspiration from the TV concept as guests are split into teams of two to follow a recipe to then battle it out with the others to win the much coveted first prize.
Who in your team will rise to the occasion! You will knead to take this seriously; immortality is just a scone's throw away.
A team baking event is a great event for everyone within your organisation, no matter everyones level of skill in the kitchen!
This event can be run around the country throughout the year. Although please note that if you would like to enjoy your experience in a marquee in a similar style to the TV show then this may only be possible in the warmer Summer months. If you wish for your event to take place during colder/wetter months then this may need to be indoors.
Go Ape Adventure
If you are looking for a seriously adventurous day outside then you need look no further than a day at a Go Ape adventure centre.
With activities ranging from zip wires, to super-springy trampoline nets in the trees, to off-road Segways, there truly is an adventure suitable for everyone whether you enjoy racing through the heights of the treetops or along the forest floor.

Silent Sounds Boat Party
