Outdoor Team Building

We provide practical, enjoyable, outdoor team building programmes, from one to three days, at venues throughout the UK. Activities include practical tasks in the conference room, activities in hotel grounds and exercises involving orienteering, rafting, mountain biking, climbing etc.

Formed in 1987, our breadth of experience and expertise in using the outdoors creates team building programmes with the right balance between practical activities, reviews, workshop sessions and the social agenda.

• "Beacons quickly established areas in which our team was strong and areas that needed development, and acted constructively to encourage and improve team working. Their staff were insightful and helpful, and moreover professional and fun."

If this is something you need to arrange at short notice, please call Peter Maliphant of Beacons on 01275 848791 today.

What do Beacons mean by "outdoor"?

We design and set up practical team projects, lasting from 30 minutes to 2 hours, most of which have an outdoor element. Customised to your objectives, they provide different and memorable opportunities to practice team skills in an unfamiliar environment, without being physically demanding.

• "Good fun with sharp learning points"
• Government Office for the South East

Our ratio of 7-8 course members to one Beacons facilitator, plus our full time support staff, enables us to work closely with everyone and maintain a high standard of supervision and safety.

Age or fitness is no barrier. On a Beacons programme, every team member can play a full part.

Team Building Programme Options

All of our programmes are unique! Whether they are one, two or three days, whether there are 6 team members or 20, whether they are to be workshop-style or fun - we design them with your team in mind. Please call us and outline your basic requirements and we will email you some options to consider.

Beacons Team Building Venues

Team building with Beacons can take place at a wide variety of venues, throughout England and Wales, and also in mainland Europe. We add new locations - often chosen or recommended by you the client - every year.

The decision will depend on the type of outdoor programme agreed, the time available and your budget.

• "Following our return to the office, everyone has displayed full commitment to implementing the changes that will enable us to become a better team"

Beacons Fees

Our rates begin at £100 per participant per day and vary according to numbers attending, the type of programme, the level of planning and pre-work, and so on.

We always quote a fee fully inclusive of preparation, planning, professional indemnity, pre-course meetings, etc. as well as the full delivery of the programme. So there are no hidden extras in our fees.

As part of our service, at no charge, we use our experience and contacts in selecting and booking the right venue.

Hotel accommodation can range from £30 to £50 per person "day-rate", i.e. without an overnight stay, and from £90 to £150 per person "24-hour-rate".

Local sports centres, sports clubs and colleges can often provide very economical facilities for non-residential "away days", and we can also recommend good bunkhouse-type accommodation for overnight stays, in various parts of England and Wales.
