How to Build Skills with a Purpose: Charitable Team Events
THE CLIENT BRIEF:
The JWT Finance team asked us to organise a charitable team building event to combine the learning of new skills with ‘giving something back’.
OUR SOLUTION:
We developed and delivered a cookery event with a twist…the twist being that the team served up the fruit of their labours to the residents of the Salvation Army homeless hostel in Whitechapel, East London.
The hostel is a male only property which helps short term and long term homeless get back on their feet.
THE FINER DETAILS:
JWT turned up at the shelter at 3pm and prepared the following menu to dish out to the residents before cleaning up the kitchen and dining area afterwards:
THE CLIENT FEEDBACK:
“Everyone had a very good day and found it very rewarding. It is definitely something we would do again… It was a really great idea and all of our staff came away very proud of their achievement and felt as though they had learnt something new.”
