A SMALL SAMPLE OF OUR CORPORATE EVENTS

Bushcraft & Nature Awareness Day with Cirencester College

The Assistant Principal and staff joined us for a day of Bushcraft and Nature Awareness at our site at the Organic Farm Cirencester. They covered a variety of different subjects - fire, water, shelter, tree and plant uses, nature awareness and tracking both for fun and to increase their knowledge base.  The day was a resounding success with extremely positive feedback from all:-

“Excellent sessions; well led; great site thanks”

“Educational and great fun!”

“Excellent”

“Interesting and educational!”

“Good pace - just the right amount of information”

“Cool, fun and informative day”

“An excellent day.”

Archery Event with WRAP

Existing and some new members of WRAP staff joined us for a morning of Archery at our site at the Organic Farm, Cirencester. The event was directed towards fostering good working relationships and team work and also encouraging the staff to hit the targets of the company, in this case specifically geared towards reducing the UK’s waste levels, a mission close to our hearts here at Wild Connections.  The morning’s activity was followed up by a wonderful lunch at the highly rated Organic Farm Shop Cafe.

Everyone had a fantastic time, all achieving a high level of success, including several who had been to an archery event previously, “failed dismally” and told Duncan that the Instructors had “given up” on them. Never one to shy away from a challenge, Duncan had them hitting the target and even scoring in the bull’s eye before the event was over! Here’s just some of the extremely positive feedback from the event:-

“AB FAB!”

“A really fun morning learning new skills.”

“Thanks for a great session, I really enjoyed it and will try to arrange a repeat trip
with some friends in the future."

“Very enjoyable”.

“Fantastic.”

“I had a great time at your venue, as I know my colleagues did as well."

"Very good.”

“Excellent, even though I wasn’t!”
