The raft building activity we consider to be the ultimate in team building linked with fun. We are able to cater for up to 120 people with 14 raft kits available.
This activity can be run at many locations including our lake venue or River Thames venue just outside the M25 west of London.

PRIZEGIVING
WHAT IS INVOLVED ?
The crew is assembled and briefed on the basic materials needed and knot techniques for constructing a raft. Raft Building focuses on group dynamics, communication skills and leadership. We present the group with the challenge of building rafts out of limited resources. They must work together on all stages from carrying their materials to designing, building and finally paddling their rafts. When rafts are built, the group paddles their rafts around a set course on a woodland lake. The hands-on section of the workshop is over when all rafts are completely disassembled and materials are placed neatly back where they were before we started. Then we debrief the experience, highlighting positive teamwork, and setting goals for improvement.
FULL DAY or HALF DAY?
You arrive at the lake (just 5 minutes off the M25) and can optionally have a bacon/ egg roll and croissant breakfast by the lake or in the clubhouse if preferred.
The group is split into teams and the team leaders and team names allocated. A safety brief is given, everyone fitted with safety gear, and then we are straight into the challenges.
