| Introduction |
| Corporate activity and
experience days are a great way to get your employees communicating with other
key employees within your company. Activities and experiences can also encourage
and demonstrate how working as a team and thinking as a team can help and
benefit both employer and employee. Get your staff or even your clients buzzing
with an adrenaline fuelled action day, sky diving, flying, climbing, paint
balling... or perhaps a nice relaxing pamper session and massage finished with
an afternoon of ballooning. |

| Making the best use of |
|
Finding corporate activities that all your business employees can participate in
can be a challenge in its self. Although corporate experience and activity days
are great for staff moral and team building not every member of staff will
relish the thought of jumping out of an aeroplane or white water rafting.
Slightly less physical activities and experiences such as special event days and
self pamper days can have the same staff moral boosting effects. |
|
| How many do I need? |
| Many
large and small companies have been sending their employees on team building
experience days for many years and as a result a specialist corporate activity
and experience day industry has grown and arisen. Many activity companies
specialise in providing a wide variety of experiences from sky diving, fast car
driving, flying and balloon days, climbing, survival training to relaxing self
pampering days and special corporate event days. |
|
| Booking suggestions |
| Many
activity and experience providers have dedicated specialist corporate teams of
organisers who will put together and arrange every aspect for your day right
down to (if needed) transportation, accommodation and meals. Alternatively for
smaller numbers booking an off the shelf activity day may be more suitable.
Whichever type of product you choose always book your activity day well in
advance and re-check your booking close to the date. |
|
| Regulations, insurance and other useful notes |
It is
important to remember that some activity and experience companies only act as
product resellers and do not actually own or operate the activities being
offered (similar to travel agents). It is therefore important to check your
consumer rights and refund policy should the actual activity provider cease
trading. Insurance. All activity and experience providers should be able
to provide evidence of public liability cover if requested.
