We used Team building with BITE for our Away Day, they met the brief perfectly and the day was very well organised and the structure was great. The trainers were so helpful and friendly and you could see how much work and effort they had put into the day to make it a success. I will be recommending Team building with BITE to friends and family if they want team building with a difference. Thank you for a great day!

This was a surprise activity for my Wife's 30th birthday at Port Lympne. She and her friends had a fun and rewarding time - It really is something different to the norm.

Thoroughly enjoyable team building event at longleat. Chris and Mark were really energetic and knowledgeable. It was great to see the birds interacting with our 'builds' at the end of the session -- great end to the day. Would highly recommend!

This was a really well put together team building experience. It had a brilliant balance of making something together as a team, giving something back, being outdoors and the magic of the animals just topped it off. Great lunch too.

really fun activity planned - well adapted to our needs. The trainers were friendly and up for a laugh - which was needed considering how terribly our team performed. It was great to watch the animals interact with what we made. The activity was well resourced and the guides couldn't have been more friendly and helpful.

I really enjoyed the hands on elements of the course and to be able to see giraffes eating from the feeding boxes that we had made.

I would highly recommend this team building day. I thoroughly enjoyed every part of it and didn't want the day to end. It was something different and I loved that it was so hands on and it didn’t involve lots of writing or flip chart pads. The organisation and timing was perfect. There was just the right amount of time for refreshments, work and play. Location was amazing. The manor house was just beautiful. We had pastries and refreshments on arrival. Lunch was delicious and of the highest quality. Our trainers, Mark and Chris were brilliant. They were so professional, but at the same time relaxed and had a knack of putting us at ease and supporting us, but not taking over. They were so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. During the morning we split into three groups and were asked to make a giraffe feeder. We were given a safety briefing and told about wearing gloves and goggles for protection. We were supplied with power tools (saws, drills, clamps, cutters) and the materials (wood, perspex, screws, brackets). We were then given really clear instructions on how to build it and were allowed to ask questions throughout the session. Mark and Chris were around to instruct us on the various phases of the build and helped us with any challenges we encountered. Having not used any power tools since my CDT lessons at school nearly 30 years ago at first I was pretty daunted, but with encouragement and support from the rest of my group I overcame my fears, gained confidence and was amazed by what we managed to produce at the end. I sawed, drilled, cut out holes in perspex – I was pretty pleased with myself. The task fostered our communication skills, transferable skills, drew on our strengths (whether that was knowledge and skills for the task, or supporting and encouraging our colleagues). Everyone was able to contribute and join in and I think we all pushed ourselves out of our comfort zone. We were also up against the clock, so it was a test in time management and working under pressure too. It was a totally positive and empowering experience. It was extremely well thought out as so many skills were drawn from us naturally as we undertook the task. There was also a prize for the team who worked best together, so this brought out our competitive streaks, but in a friendly way. After our lunch we then got to go out on a jeep around the African Experience with Mark and Chris in search of giraffes. This was the really fun part. It was so exciting. It took us a while to find them, but eventually Chris' perseverance and experience paid off. We got to feed them with willow branches and just being so close to them with no cages was wonderful. The giraffes were inquisitive of our feeders and eventually fed from them. I felt such a sense of achievement, that we had made a small improvement to their lives. It was a thoroughly amazing day and with so many wonderful experiences. Thanks so much to all the staff at Port Lympne and Team Building With BITE, especially Mark and Chris.
