How long do team building activities last?

Apart from energisers, most of our corporate team build activities last between 2 – 3 hours. Sometimes there is a tight schedule for an activity and only a limited amount of time is available; if this is the case, we will suggest the best event based on group profile, budget, and brief.

Events range from indoor activities to more physical outdoor adventure challenges. However, all activities are suitable for any abilities. All our events are run by experienced facilitators who will assist and help any group.

Team building activities are as active as the specific event chosen and to a lesser extent, how energetic each team is. Team building can as active or inactive as required.

GPS Treasure hunts, Queen’s Jubilee Quest and London Game of Zones are located around the streets of Central London and will require simple walking. Circus skills workshop, Robot Wars, The Rat Trap, are relatively active that will require some movement of walking, bending down, sitting on the floor. Wild Wipeout, It’s a Knockout, Dragon Boat racing, School Sports Day will require a higher degree of activity.

Are there team events that last a full day?

Normally the longest team event lasts 3 hours. For a full day’s activity or team offsite, it would be a case of preparing a bespoke full day to create a perfectly balanced programme. With nearly 30 years of helping companies achieve a great away day out, we have a huge amount of experience behind the business. There isn’t much that hasn’t been requested over the years. A full day often commences with arrival refreshments, a morning activity then lunch. Then after a good lunch, we would re-convene for a second activity. There would be some considerations to consider. For instance, have a think about how ‘up for it’ everybody would be after a lunch. Perhaps a less active event may be more suitable in the afternoon. Knowing where the group are to be located is the best starting point for instance, London.
