Mountain biking and laser clay shooting were just a few of the activities on offer at a unique team-building day held on the Estate. The annual Bupa Challenge event saw over 120 Bupa staff and their business partners take part in team activities to strengthen relationships.

While the challenges had to be competitive, they also had to be accessible for all and required an element of teamwork, ingenuity, problem-solving and dexterity from participants. At each activity teams were awarded points with overall winners being crowned at the end of the day. 

Alongside the challenges, participants were also treated to breakfast, lunch and dinner in an open-sided marquee and additional entertainment included drumming lessons, live music and dancing.

We worked closely with corporate event specialists Threshold Sports to deliver every aspect of the day and were delighted to receive such positive feedback from participants and Bupa.

Our outdoor spaces proved to be extremely versatile with our woodlands providing a challenging mountain biking course, our Deer Park having enough space to easily accommodate an obstacle course and laser clay shoot and our beautiful formal garden with its breathtaking views were the perfect spot to chill out at the end of an actioned-packed day.

“I really enjoyed the whole event. The weather was amazing and Englefield House was a beautiful setting with stunning grounds. The challenges were all really fun and taking part in the reggae drumming was a great livener before the evening’s entertainment.” Bupa Challenge Participant.
