meeting your team’s needs

The new environment of more remote workers means there is a greater need to get the team together regularly.

At Folly farm we have large outside spaces for people to use as they wish, from a brainstorming group with inspirational views to just strengthening and building new relationships with colleagues.

We can also organise several team building activities from sheep and duck herding, to woodland crafts and skills, really engaging with nature and the local environment.

There is also opportunity for mindfulness sessions including yoga in the reserve, a woodland walk and meditation surrounded by birdsong.
