Pick’n’Mix

Half and full day packages are available but whichever you choose you will have an enjoyable and fun packed event.

Elements can arrange the day to suit the needs of the client whether it be purely for fun or we can set tasks, offering assessment and feedback on teamwork, communication thereby helping you to identify strong participants, team strategies and even areas where improvement may be suggested while in a non-threatening and fun environment.

Tasks can range from physical, mental, wet and dry but all require teams to work together.  Some tasks may require the full team to carry it out successfully, others may only require one or two but it is important that everyone in the group learn that everyone is equally important and has a part to play.

Our standard package does include ‘wet’ challenges and some activities may require you to wear old clothing and footwear and to bring a change of clothing.

Your day of activities can include Raft Building, Orienteering, Archery and more, however please feel free to contact us with your requirements.

Elements can also organise a barbeque or dinner at a location of your choice to round of the day please contact us for information.

Times

Full-day – 10.30am to 4.30pm

Raft Building

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to build a raft using your pioneering skills and the various equipment provided.  While designing and building your raft your team will also perform other tasks and challenges. 

You will learn some knots and lashings (handy if nobody in your team was in the Scouts or Guides) to help you in building your raft and following the allocated time you will take to the water and test the integrity of your craft ~ will it float or will you sink?

Raft Building can be run at a variety of locations to suit clients who may have limited transport resources or a specific venue in mind.

A great session is guaranteed and is ideal for groups of children of all ages (especially the adult ones).  All participants will be provided with the appropriate safety equipment before entering the water including buoyancy aids, helmets and paddles etc.

The raft must be big and strong enough to carry your team* through a series of challenges.  The real test of any craft is time ~ how long will it last?  Don’t worry if yours earns the name Titanic as our staff will be close enough to rescue you (and what remains of your craft)!

*Obviously we encourage the entire team to take to the water on their raft however we do appreciate that some people may have concerns about ending up in the water themselves!  Elements policy is never to force anyone into any activity they feel uncomfortable with for whatever reason.  If this is the case we would ask the participant concerned to simply have a quiet word with their instructor who will fully understand and be happy to assist in any way possible.

Orienteering

Orienteering can be a great half or full day session.  We currently offer set orienteering courses in various locations throughout the province but it may be possible to set a course at your own location, please contact us to discuss your requirements. 

Orienteering can be combined with other half day activities to give you a full day course.

Our set locations include forest and country parks and mountainous areas, all chosen not only for their safety but also for their beauty and places of interest.

In addition to being out in the fresh air and being active in searching for the orienteering markers, our staff can combine this with a nature trail of the area, touching on some of the subjects in our survival courses.  This type of activity lends itself well for use as a team building challenge for the workplace or private group.

Times

Full-day – 10.30am to 4.30pm

Half-day – 10.30am to 1.30pm

Archery

The archery course can be booked as a half or full day.  Archery can also be combined with other half day activities to give you a full day course.

Times

Full-day – 10.30am to 4.30pm

Half-day – 10.30am to 1.30pm

We can run this activity at virtually any location including your own (risk assessment permitting) and can offer indoor or outdoor sessions.

This is a great session for those who prefer a more relaxed approach to adventure sports, but don’t be fooled, it is still as much fun and is a great way of promoting teamwork and individual targets (excuse the pun) and goals.

You will receive coaching to help improve your aim and by the end you could well be hitting apples from off the heads of willing or more slightly nervous volunteers.
