COVID Safe Team Building

We have been busy ensuring all of our team events are safe for clients. From enhanced hygiene procedures for our staff and clients, to encouraging social distancing throughout the duration of our events, Covid safety is our priority this summer.

Prior to your event, we will check with you that none of the attendees is suffering from Coronavirus related symptoms or have been in contact with anyone suffering from Coronavirus.

We understand it has been difficult to plan ahead in recent times. This is why we are providing you with a COVID guarantee on all of our team building activities. This means that if you or any of the group are unable to attend due to local or national restrictions we will help you rearrange the activity to a suitable date free of charge.
