‘Wheels for Walkies’ is a unique charity team building event created by Team Tactics, for a cause close to our dog-loving hearts.
This activity takes team building to the next level by giving it purpose. Working together, teams help dogs regain mobility after accidents, birth defects, or illness, creating an experience that’s both rewarding and meaningful.
By combining collaboration, creativity, and a shared sense of giving back, ‘Wheels for Walkies’ is an uplifting team activity for any group. Perfect for teams looking for a wholesome, feel-good challenge that everyone can get involved in.
And the best part? You’ll even get the chance to meet the incredible dogs whose lives have been changed by their new wheels – a moment guaranteed to leave hearts full and tails wagging.
“I’ve seen teams become deeply invested, not just in the task but in each other after our ‘Wheels for Walkies’ activity. There’s something incredibly bonding about building with compassion at the centre. People leave feeling uplifted, connected, and proud of what they achieved together.”
Participants will join their teams, before an opening presentation introduces the activity, its purpose, and the charity behind it.
Then comes everyone’s favourite moment… the dogs arrive!
The event runs across three sections, each featuring collaborative team challenges. By working together, teams earn the parts needed to build the wheelchairs, with a few fun twists along the way.
The session finishes with team photos and a reflection on the experience, celebrating both the teamwork and the difference made for the dogs

Everyone did such a great job and I love the fact that its a CSR event but its different to what other companies offer. Anyone who is an animal lover will want to do this. I'm so pleased we were able to and just want to say a big thank you to everyone for making our event so amazing! Team Tactics team planned and delivered the day really well. Everyone agreed the day was particularly well-judged regarding the tone which was upbeat despite Pumpkin’s background circumstances. We came away feeling we had made a difference and achieved a great deal, as well as the team having bonded and worked together through the tasks. We were really impressed!Wheels for Walkies
The Team Tactics team were great in helping to organise this session in the limited timescales we have and with the flexibility to run this session from our office, in a shortened timescale. Ellie was a great events lead, bringing energy (as well as getting everyone to settle down where excited!) to our group who were definitely very pleased with the activity. The kick off was very seamless, and Ellie got us out the office quickly (as well as round up equally speedily), which was fantastic to enable us to take advantage of the shortened time we had for the activity vs. the standard.The Royal Quest
WOW WOW WOW!!
Bruce and team were sensational yesterday at our event.
Everyone LOVED them and I have never seen so many people smile and be willing to get involved with an activity before!
They blew us away with the Haka, the messages and information on their tribes and Bruce’s humour – just incredible!The Haka
Our team is largely remote which can mean organising events in person can be difficult as we're not always sure who will actually turn up! Team Tactics were patient with this and accommodating as we had to change the numbers a couple of times leading up to the event.
On the day it was great to have an event planner and the ipads tracking the opposing teams scores were fun but also slick.Yuletide Treasure Hunts
Great experience throughout from the planning before the event right the way through. Would highly recommend for any corporate team building exercise. The team LOVED the Wheelies for Walkies event. Thank you Abbie, Ellie and team.Wheels for Walkies
Thank you so much for two excellent events. The quality of equipment and new resources for super fun games have been amazing - super friendly staff too with great personalities adding to the fun. Everyone who has been involved in these events has thanked me immensely but I know all the thanks is for Team Tactics!London Game of Zones
Really happy with the event - Tim managed to get the entire team engaged and working together, and the 2 hours flew by. Would recommend this event to others looking for a corporate team building event (in fact, I have already recommended Team Tactics to someone at another company).Grab The Grinch
We had a great time yesterday – Ellie and Paige were fantastic. Thank you so much.Lucy
Just to say a huge thank you to you for putting together what most members of my team have called the best away day ever! We had a great time, I for one will be trying to recreate the meals & cocktails over Christmas. We are going to need to top this next year!!Cook, Eat and Be Merry
Huge thanks to you, Melissa, Tracey and the team for all your hard work in putting the Crystal Challenge together. Tracey and the girls were truly amazing yesterday and everyone really enjoyed our day despite the rain. I am pleased the event is over. It’s been a great experience though.
Once again, thank you very much! I look forward to working with you and the team in the future.The Crystal Challenge
The event itself was fantastically run. I’d arranged to have a telephone call with Jem the day before where we discussed exactly what I wanted to achieve from this workshop and how it would interlink with our main goals as a company for this year. It was nice to do something different which involved everyone taking part and working together as well as having some fun at the same time.Circus Skills Workshop
The event was A HIT!!! Everyone really seemed to love it! I’m so so thankful to you and your team for all efforts to make this happen (especially with the late notice). We’re still in the process of gathering formal feedback from the attendees, but so far it’s definitely one of the favorite portions of the programming.
I could not be happier with the result of the team tactics session! I’m so so grateful and I even mentioned to the girls at the event that I would be happy to share Team Tactics information for other admins (&/or event planners) in our company to reach out.
Thanks so much- I know we will work together again!Micki
It was a great day and what we all needed thank you so much for supporting us in making it happen. We will be in touch for the next one!Sati
Thanks to you and the full team for a great session! The team LOVED it!BAT
Thank you so much, we all had a great time on Friday. The weather obviously helped.London Canal Quest
We recently participated in a fantastic team event hosted by Team Tactics. It was an incredible experience for a worthy cause. This was our second time working with them, and once again, they did not disappoint. Ellie and her team were fabulous hosts, ensuring that everyone had a great time. Our team particularly enjoyed seeing the dogs, which added a special touch to the afternoon. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and look forward to working with Team Tactics again in the future.Sasha
I just wanted to say an absolutely huge thank you for making the Bupa Team Health Challenge at the London stadium in September such a success! We were absolutely delighted with the final output and the experience we created for our guests.
We have seen some incredible results with 100% of people saying the day increased their awareness of the benefits of a diverse workforce, 100% people rated the event 10/10 and we achieved an NPS score of 100.
These are remarkable results and you were a huge part of creating this magic! I was so busy I didn’t even get to really see you on the day which was a shame but I know what a truly amazing job you did! Thanks so much again.Samantha
Thank you for the follow up email. It was a great session, I wasn’t actually in the room at the start but I was walking back to the main room and I could hear roars of laughter as they guys were so funny and had captured the audience perfectly. Everyone left the event on a real high and I am very grateful for this.
Please pass on my thanks to Bruce, what a genuinely lovely person.Caroline
Employee feedback was that they enjoyed seeing other colleagues and the informality of being together. There’s an intrinsic value to that time together that’s often underestimated. Many of our colleagues don’t have an office environment or set working location, and for them it was especially enjoyable. We hadn’t held an event like this for three or four years, so Bigger Picture was a valuable team building opportunity not just post-merger, but post-COVID.Carl
From start to finish, working with Team Tactics was fantastic and the team were a joy to work with; they made the booking process very easy and were communicative and pro-active the entire time.
The actual event itself was amazing; a truly great event: the members from Team Tactics were superb, very fun and engaging and Helen and Vicky from the charity Broken Biscuits were wonderful (please pass on our thanks to them for coming and for joining in so much with the team) and how we ever let dear little Minnie and Zoe the dogs out of the building I’ll never know – they were fantastic!!Vicki
I wanted to pass on our thanks for the treasure hunt event. The team thoroughly enjoyed it and the photos are brilliant. The feedback across the board has been excellent too.
Additionally, I would say thank you to Rebecca and Seb. They did a fabulous job setting the teams up with their packs, explaining how the game works and wrapping it up at the end. Great job.Gary
We booked the sound bath for 160 team members (in two groups of 80) The feedback from the team has been phenomenal. Some colleagues were highly sceptical/curious about this type of activity. The staff, the ambience, the instructor - nothing to fault. Highly recommend.Alice
Paige and Marie-Louise were great hosts, they took the time to explain each session thoroughly and were friendly and bubbly throughout! My team took part in The Rat Trap and Around the World, which were great challenges that got my team thinking outside of the box and collaborating.
I would definitely use Team Tactics again!Khia
I wanted to take a moment to share my thoughts on the fantastic service we received for our group evening event, ""Around the World in 80 Minutes."" From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of exceptional.
First and foremost, the organisation and planning were impeccable. The team was incredibly attentive to our needs and ensured that every detail was taken care of, making the evening seamless and enjoyable for all attendees.Nichola
A great team building and bonding afternoon doing the Apprentice Treasure Hunt, I would strongly recommend. Many thanks to our event host, Paige, she was supper accommodating with our timings and a great help with sorting teams.Charlotte
The event was extremely successfully it achieved our objective of getting the teams to have fun and to bond as a team. I would highly recommend this team building activity to all business. A special thank you our facilitator Julie.Suzanna
Teams work together to build dog wheelchairs, complete challenges, and create accessories, requiring communication, problem-solving, and collaboration at every step.
We work closely with a range of trusted charity partners to ensure every wheelchair goes to a dog in need. We coordinate with them to understand what is most needed, so your team’s effort has a real, meaningful impact.
Yes! Teams interact with the dogs, which adds a feel-good, uplifting element to the day.If you have members of the team with a fear of dogs, or allergies, please let us know.
