Employee wellbeing, engagement and positive connections between teams make for better business. Research shows that the stress and mental health issues alone cost UK businesses over £30 billion each year (Centre for Mental Health) . However there are proven ways you can reduce these impacts on your workforce and improve your business outcomes.

The Nature events from Get Out More will help your employees to step outside workplace pressures and develop a fresh perspective.

Our activities use New Economic Foundation’s ‘Five Ways to Wellbeing’, a set of evidence-based actions that improve mental capital and wellbeing:

Connect: build relationships outside your office

Be Active: feel good in the great outdoors

Take Notice: savour the changing seasons

Keep Learning: develop new outdoor skills

Give: do things for others, and yourself

Invest time in outdoors with Get Out More’s Nature programmes for business. We have options to suit your budget and time frame, in which your teams can enjoy a menu of fun and accessible activities, including:

• Fire craft: develop the skills to light and maintain a campfire

• Wild art: lose yourself in creative activities

• Natural heritage: learn traditional skills such as weaving or cordage

• Forage: gather seasonal ingredients and cook a meal
