Each group will enjoy a range of feet-on-the-ground activities set amongst the splendour of our ancient woodland, surrounded by nature.

ARCHERY: Our archery range is in a tranquil setting.  Under a parachute canopy which blends with the surrounding trees, and located next to a babbling brook.  The session will cover an introduction, practice rounds, fun archery games and a scoring round.

ORIENTEERING: Explore the woodland on a network of paths whilst completing an orienteering course. The session starts with a quick lesson on map reading and then you can set out on your own to find the controls hidden in the woodland.

PUZZLED IN THE WOODS: You can complete up to 7 problem solving tasks set amongst the trees. Your instructor is there to guide you between tasks and offer life lines should you require any assistance.  You will have a combination of light physical and cognitive tasks.

FIRE & BREAD MAKING: Based in the bushcraft den, nestled within the woodland environment this peaceful activity involves making your own campfire and freshly cooked bread.  You will practice fire lighting skills using flint and steel, before making and cooking Bannock bread for you to savour around the fire.

SHELTER BUILDING:  Imagine you were staying the night!  Your group are required to build a shelter to keep themselves warm and dry.  You will be given limited resources and then you can use your imagination and resources found naturally in the woodland to create your perfect shelter.

Thank you for a great day. The team enjoyed their day out of the office to work together pushing boundaries and supporting each other.

Thank you to Jim, Colin & Lee at Outdoor Elements for our fantastic Team Day. It gave us a chance to step away from our usual work routine and spend time together in a different setting whilst having lots of fun. The activities helped strengthen our communication and collaboration skills, and it was nice to see everyone working together in new ways as well as trying new things and pushing ourselves outside of our own comfort zones. Would definitely recommend to any business looking to organise a Team Day and we look forward to working together on future Team Days.
