Team away days at Slimbridge Wetland Centre
WWT Slimbridge is set in a breathtakingly beautiful natural landscape. Far removed from the everyday office environment, it provides a perfect location to engage your team in a purpose-built meeting space and benefit from some very different activities for your team to enjoy.
Slimbridge Wetland Centre's range of activities changes with the seasons and the size of the group. Activities are led by experienced WWT staff and volunteers and there’s something for all abilities.
At WWT they've been running successful team building events since the early 1990s.
