One World. One Team

One World, One Team is about local action with a global reach as teams work together to create, produce and pack unique 'gift boxes' for distribution to needy children throughout the world. Teams have to complete creative various challenges to earn enough fun 'spending money' for a shopping spree in the 'Shop of Dreams' where teams can purchase a huge array of child-friendly items.  Teams then collect their flat-packed boxes then build, wrap and lovingly fill them up with the goodies!
At the end of the event, all the boxes are stacked in the 'distribution area' to enable teams to see just what they've achieved as a whole.  The final stage involves the team being shown a short, specially prepared film highlighting what will happen to the boxes, where they will end up and how they will be making a difference to the lives of children throughout the world. A truly unique, meaningful and worthwhile event that literally changes lives.  This would be a half day activity for groups of 20 plus UK wide

 

 

‘Make a Difference’ Days

Our unique 'Make a Difference' Community Events provide teams with a cross between 'Challenge Anneka', 'Ground Force' and 'Changing Rooms' and provide teams with a rewarding and worthwhile opportunity to really make a difference to worthy causes and charities such as Hospices, Scout Groups, Community centres…For example, the team could support a Hospice by painting patient rooms, pressure wash patios to supporting a local Scout Group, perhaps sand and varnish outdoor benches for an elderly community group, working with the homeless. We've even had people acting as photographic 'models' for a charity's marketing material!   As part of the challenge, we research and identify suitable challenge sites, provide all the necessary resources, staff, equipment and tools to enable the tasks to be successfully completed.  A really unique experience that’s meaningful and fun and guaranteed to ‘Make A Difference’.  For groups of all sizes, countrywide.

 

Work the land!

We can arrange for your team to work with local stakeholders all over the country to help work on woodland tasks such as repairing or replacing fences, planting hedgerows, rebuilding pathways, building and placing bird boxes, digging drainage channels, dredging streams and waterways.  Varying degrees of physical ability can be catered for and the emotional and spiritual rewards for you team can be immense -coming away from a day knowing that a hedgerow will still be there in 100 years is some return on investment!  We can provide a typically rural packed lunch and refreshments throughout the day or we provide outdoor catering.  Ideally a full day activity for groups of 10 upwards.

 

The Charity Challenge

The Charity Challenge is about having fun with a purpose. During the event, each team will work together to complete a number of upbeat challenges which could include anything from balloon modelling or solving a murder to designing their version of the Sydney Opera House! As part of each challenge, the team is rewarded with unique 'Charity Chips' - how many will depend on how well each team works together to complete the tasks.  At various times during the event, teams will have an opportunity to bank their 'chips' which will be converted into real cash and at the end of the event, a final figure will be totalled for the whole group and the results announced to the team. This final amount will then be added onto a presentation cheque made out to a charity of your choice.
(Where possible - and if we have details of your chosen charity in advance - we can arrange for a representative of the charity to join us on the day to receive the cheque and provide a short overview on how the money raised is likely to be used to benefit the organisation.




This is just a taster of the ‘putting something back’ teambuilding activities Assured Events can offer! We can also arrange overseas volunteer work, canal clearing, beachcombing…
