When a client decided that they wanted to do something worthwhile for a good cause on their team building event we connected them with a wildlife park that needed some lions rehoused. Their current facilities were inadequate and our client bought materials and sent a team of fifty to spend a day building a new enclosure for them. With such a large group a huge amount was accomplished and the day ended with the lions being let into their new living space.

Everyone who participated enjoyed contributing to something worthwhile. We took photos of the day and captured this lovely moment of contentment between a young cub and one of the keepers. Follow this link for more photographs from this good cause team building day.

What a great idea! Combining a company event with a good cause. I wish I was present during this team building event working with wild animals!

I like this idea a lot. I think that doing good together is one of the most effective ways to build a team.

This is a great idea. There’s so much good that companies could do for needy organisations out there. Since the recession people have been cutting back on their donations and some of the smaller charities are really suffering. Something like this could make all the difference.
