Team Building Activities in the UK

Team building activities can often fit around any conference schedule.  Within a day’s conference, often a more fun, light-hearted approach is required by corporates. The event may be to reinforce a company message, to instil collaboration, shared values or indeed energise the group.  We operate events 7 days a week, 365 days of the year, 24 hours a day. Our most popular days for team events are Thursdays and Fridays so do book in advance! We are open during bank holidays (Scotland has some different bank holidays to England for example). There is no price difference whatever day you choose to run events with Team Tactics.

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.  For example:

Corporate Cooking & Build a Brand Challenge are a more relaxed team activity.

GPS Treasure hunts, The Royal Quest and London Game of Zones involve walking around the streets so will require average fitness levels.

Circus skills workshop, Robot Wars, It’s a 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.

But do bear in mind, Team Tactics is a corporate provider of team building days out and all games are designed with this type of participant. Got any questions? Call us!

Team activities for the whole office are a common request. Very often, the brief for these types of events are that they are required to tick many boxes in order for all departments in the company to enjoy and to get involved with. This could be for 20 or 250 persons. But from an administrator to an actuary, to a clerk to a CEO, it’s a task to organise an away day and make everybody happy! You have made it to us, and we can help! Team Tactics has specifically created events that will suit a wide range of staff based throughout the UK, including cities such as London, Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham and Newcastle.

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 we would re-convene for a second activity, but there are some considerations to keep in mind: have a think about how ‘up for it’ everybody will 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.

Tasked with providing a team building activity indoors as part of a conference offers clear guidelines to event organisers. With theatre style, delegates will be seated in rows, like the theatre. There is limited movement of delegates, and any event will need to take this into account. The Haka, Drumming, One Voice or Thriller Experience are the perfect fit to this event brief.

Your brief is to provide an engaging, collaborative event with an existing cabaret layout in situ. Consider The Bigger Picture or Around the World. Cabaret seating is seating around round tables, but half of the table is not used, so that all delegates can view the front of the room without having to turn their heads or chairs to view the projector or speaker. This is ideal for event organisers and generally we will use tables and teams.

Team Tactics offer off-the-shelf days’ out but can deliver bespoke company away days based on a specific brief. Perhaps there is limited event space and require an activity around tables, or in a theatre style conference set up. There may be a specific corporate message required to inspire the team. Often timing is essential, or indeed the location of the away day. Our goal is to minimise travel time in and around a city for maximum enjoyment. Depending upon your requirements, we will provide a number of options to consider.

A lot of the clients who run team building days are 24-35 years old. We have devised a huge range of team events to choose from. Whether it’s an indoor or outdoor team event, or an active or more mind stimulating event, we have something for everyone. Our GPS treasure hunts are always a big hit with this age group, but if you prefer something more artistic why not try our ARTrageous graffiti workshop, where you can enjoy a delicious lunch followed by fun with spray paint – learning graffit from an expert.

Team Tactics offer a variety of different philanthropic events, offering team building events across the UK, with experts covering cities including London, Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham and Newcastle. It’s an amazing feeling to be able to give something back to the community. Corporate Social Responsibility is high on many company agendas and combing it with a team activity provides a double whammy – giving something back to the community whilst at the same time, giving something back to your staff by way of team building. To witness or create something that will positively impact others makes for a humbling and memorable team experience with a difference. Charity bike build and London Charity Apprentice GPS Hunt are two ideal charity team build activities.
