Center Parcs Conferences & Events announces its partnership with award-winning, full-service corporate events and team-building agency, Eventurous, to enhance its corporate event experiences at Sherwood Forest and Woburn Forest. The collaboration will provide delegates with an extensive range of engaging activities designed to boost employee engagement, strengthen team-bonding and create memorable events.
With over 35 years’ experience in the industry, Eventurous has built its stellar reputation delivering memorable team-building experiences for organisations across the UK and internationally. The new partnership combines Center Parcs’ unique woodland conference environment with Eventurous’ extensive portfolio of team-building, wellbeing, CSR and experimental activities, creating a more diverse, inclusive and engaging range of corporate event experiences for clients.
Julia Green, Head of Corporate Events at Center Parcs Conferences and Events, said: “Data from our recent nationwide study of UK employees found that four in five employees value personalised experiences at work events, and as much as one in four feel that work events do not reflect their individual needs. By partnering with Eventurous, our corporate clients now have even more ways to combine productive meetings and conferences with innovative, engaging activities that bring people together, strengthen relationships and encourage a more connected and productive workplace where everyone feels involved and valued.
“Set within the calming surroundings of our natural forest setting, these experiences create lasting connections and memorable days away from the office, offering a refreshing alternative to traditional presentation-lead conferences and events.”
Center Parcs’ nationwide study also revealed that 92% of employees find workplace events have a positive impact on how they feel about their job, a reassuring reminder on the value that corporate events bring to employee retention and job satisfaction even during uncertain times.
For Eventurous, the partnership represents a significant milestone, bringing its team-building expertise to one of the country’s most recognised destinations for corporate events. For founders Joe and Joanna Garland, however, the partnership also carries a deeply personal significance.
Joe & Joanna Garland, Directors at Eventurous, said: “We’re absolutely delighted to be partnering with Center Parcs. Team building is where Eventurous began, so working with an organisation that shares our passion for creating memorable experiences is incredibly exciting.”
“What makes this partnership even more special is the personal connection our family has with Center Parcs. We’ve spent many happy holidays there over the years, watching our children grow up while making wonderful memories together. To now be delivering team building experiences in a place that has been such a special part of our own family’s story is something we’re genuinely proud of, and we look forward to helping even more teams connect, collaborate and create lasting memories of their own.”
Within Center Parcs’ event packages, clients can choose a dedicated team-building experience for the entire group or give smaller teams the flexibility to create their own itineraries from a wide array of activities across its villages. Team building activities include Aqua Tree Trecking, a Katakanu Race and the Forest Explorer challenge in which you race against the clock while solving puzzles, trivia and creative team challenges.
Further activity options range from watersports on the lake and mindful experiences such as woodcraft workshops and pottery painting, to high-energy activities including laser combat and segway adventures, ensuring there is something to suit every team.
Team-building programmes are now available across Center Parcs’ dedicated conference venues at Sherwood Forest and Woburn Forest, providing year-round options for organisations of all sizes.
