Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust (WWT)

Let us organise a day out of the office for you and your colleagues and see your workmates in a new light. On a team activity day you will join our wardens in tackling an outdoors project. The activity will depend on the time of year, the number in the group and on how muddy you want to get but it will be a fun and rewarding day. Improve staff morale, learn new skills and help with conservation at the same time. We can also include guided walks, use of our meeting rooms and refreshments in the package.

With the growing trend in the UK for companies to do more than simply give money away to good causes and even more importantly under current economic conditions, corporate team activity days are an excellent way to demonstrate your commitment to community investment as well investment in your team. They are a fun way to re-energise your employees whilst at the same time supporting a local conservation charity.
