Team with Nature day
This new concept of intentionally bringing your team into nature is picking up interest around the world. Wherever you are - I’m here to help you. Whether it’s to learn how to do this yourself (see the tips and ways I can help in the free download above) or to experience it - all inclusive - for yourselves.
Currently this in-person experience is only available through us on at our special location - a short hop north of London.
-
The other 200+ days of the year have been about doing, occasionally learning, this day is about connecting.
I will work with you to gently reset the balance of the team. For those who have lacked agency and not felt seen - this is their day to be listened to on an equal footing and for those who have typically been in focus to take a day away from that pressure.
Being in a meadow, cooking on a fire: nature will be our co-facilitators, setting the relaxed environment.
-
Our priority is to create a safe space for you to be with your team, enjoying nature. Becky is adept at quickly putting people at ease. With you, she will intentionally build a foundation of psychological safety based on her training and extensive experience.
-
Above all, this day is about nourishing yourselves.
There’ll be time to just be, wander and wonder, sit in the calmness of this beautiful field - trees, birds, butterflies and ladybirds.
There’ll be simple team activities such as cooking lunch on a fire and feasting!
Team with Nature day
Organisation and Team wellbeing benefits
Resilient, kind and authentic relationships form the foundations of our organisations.
A Team With Nature day is an opportunity to step away from the pressure and distractions of day-to-day work and gently invest in building deeper trust, respect and understanding of each other, with the help of nature and an expert facilitator.
Environmental and Biodiversity benefits
A Team with Nature day is very low carbon, we offer a team-building day that connects your team with the natural world in meaningful ways.
Our Team with Nature day enables teams to enjoy nature, have a minimal environmental impact for the day and uniquely raises awareness of biodiversity - one of the key issues of our time not addressed by most business activities.

We have carefully chosen a beautiful location - a private field, nestled in the shelter of the south end of Bedfordshire’s Greensand Ridge:
Bragenham Farm, near Leighton Buzzard, LU7 0EF

From the Midlands or North West, train to Milton Keynes, 15 min taxi.
We’ll give you all the info you’ll need nearer the time to get there comfortably.
You’ll walk past the chickens, down a track and through a field to find ‘Team Camp’ in the Reed field, where everything is set up for your day of cooking over the fire, chatting and relaxing. Enjoy the breeze blowing across the meadow and the sound of birdsong in the hedgerows.
