Are you interested in participating in a Business Team Event?

Covid 19 and lockdown has impacted on the mental wellbeing of people in many different ways. Team events have not been able to take place and many people have not been in work or have been working from home. As part of Be Well@Work Barnsley Council is looking into organising a number of team events/activities for businesses to participate in. The purpose of the team events are to improve mental wellbeing, improve fitness levels, lift spirits, have some fun and bring back some of the camaraderie that may have been lost over this last year.

Any team events/competitions organised would be at a cost highly subsidised and will include trophies for the winning teams.

Here are some of the options being considered to start in September/October

• 5 a side football tournament for businesses – this could be a football league running for around 8 weeks or a tournament taking place on one evening.
• A netball tournament – again it could be run as above either as a league or a tournament taking place on one evening
• 10k or 5k run for businesses to send a team with weekly running groups leading up to the date of the event.

Alternatively if you have any other ideas please let me know

In order to help with the planning process I am wanting to establish the interest from businesses.

Please respond back to [email protected] by 16 April if your business would be interested in sending a team to  participate in any of the events suggested above, stating which event or events.
