Team Building in Wales

Submitted by stuart on Wed, 2010-02-03 16:22

Wales is a fantastic location in Europe for any sort of team building program, team awayday or corporate event that you may wish to participate in. Wales is situated in an enviable position having the best of both worlds when it comes to scenic beauty and corporate commercial activity.

In today's modern business world communication skills, leadership skills, self motivation, problem solving and teamworking are critical personal skill-sets that every business requires in order to thrive. This is the case with many of the businesses that we run team building events for in Wales each year. The training programmes that we run each year allow participants to develop these skills so that general productivity, motivation and profitability of the organisation are increased.

At Fire Events we will do everything we can to make your event less stressful and less work for you, whether it is finding venues for team building in Wales or creating instruction packs for delegates on how to get there. Nothing is too much for us.

Fire Events has a wealth of knowledge, skills and expertise when it comes to designing, creating and implementing teambuilding courses, team awaydays, management development programs and corporate events around the UK. We were established in 1998 as a corporate development training company with our background being firmly rooted in the adventurous outdoor world. The team building events that we have run around Wales and the UK since our incorporation have included events as diverse as family fun days, team away days, icebreaker exercises, conference energisers through to large sponsored charity events.

About Wales

Wales is a country that is part of the United Kingdom, bordered by England to its east, and the Atlantic Ocean and Irish Sea to its west. Wales has a population estimated at three million and is officially bilingual; both Welsh and English have equal status and bilingual signs are the norm throughout the land. For the majority English is their only language, although the once-steady decline in Welsh speaking has reversed over recent years, with the total of Welsh speakers currently estimated to be around 20% of the population.

Gliffaes Hotel

Gliffaes makes the ideal base for you to explore this magic part of the Brecon Beacons National Park, South Wales. The snow has all but left the tops of the Brecon Beacons and the Black Mountains and the snow drops are out in the garden. Dust off your boots and grab your walking stick and come out to Wales for some fresh spring air.

Alternatively, you may wish for nothing more than a lazy lunch in the sunny conservatory with a bottle of wine, followed by a walk along the river and afternoon tea. Then round off the day with a drink by the fire, great dinner and early bed; heaven.

We understand all this, which is why we make it our mission to ensure that you leave here feeling a whole lot better than when you checked in. Come and enjoy our hospitality and you will find out why scores of our guests come back for more every year.
