Team Green Away Day!
Employee engagement day opportunities with 9Trees
9Trees are offering a unique opportunity for you and your team. We plant deciduous woodlands across the UK to combat climate change. You could be a part of this by joining us for an employee engagement day. Come and spend a day managing our new woodlands by putting down sustainable eco matting, learning about trees, wildlife, biodiverse habitat and reap the benefits of a day spent outside in nature.
We will spend the day at one of our planting sites doing practical tasks for 2-4 hours to do with managing the site.
Depending on the site we may be able to offer nature walks, some tree identification as well as tea, coffee and cake. You will end the day knowing that you have had a positive impact on our environment that will last for years to come.
Planting is done by professionals however, do speak with us if you would like to plant a few trees on our future sites, after testing the capabilities of your team.
Why choose 9Trees for staff engagement days?
Benefits of choosing tree planting as a staff team building day:
Spending time in nature improves staff well being, mindset and reduces stress hormones.
There is a sense of “giving back” to the community and improving the world outside of the office.
By managing/planting trees you are directly contributing to carbon sequestration.
Easing anxiety about the state of the world by creating a sense of future and longevity making a positive contribution to the environment.
This is a great opportunity to contribute to the company's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) or Environmental Social Governance (ESG)
Teams will feel collectively responsible for their positive impact.
Your involvement supports a community day.
