Together We Can
Overview
Co-operative Team Building
Our Together We Can event embodies the true ethos of team building; each team contributes to a common goal and must communicate effectively in order to achieve success. The brilliance of this event - it is pure teambuilding theory made fun!
The event promotes co-operation through a variety of non-competitive team building activities. Each team contributes to one large task, communicating their work to the next team in a briefing at the start/end of each challenge.
About
Event Format
Teams rotate around the four challenge zones, spending up to an hour at each zone, adding their contribution to each task. When the time is up they must spend 5 minutes explaining their work and handing over to the next team.
Team Challenge 1 – Canvas Art
Each team is presented with a giant canvas and acrylic paints. The team must then work together to create a section of the overall design.
Team Challenge 2 - Rollercoaster Challenge
Next, construct a working rollercoaster which carries a ball for over 30 seconds under its own momentum. Build a section of the design, including quirky engineering, which forms part of the overall contraption.
Team Challenge 3 - Commercial Break
Each team films a section of a movie. The following team will watch the last 10 seconds and follow on in sequence. Continuity is vital so actor positioning and fancy dress must be matched between teams.
Team Challenge 4 - Think Outside The Blox
We give you literally thousands of LEGO bricks and free reign to build whatever you like. Some teams choose their company logo, others something more abstract. The end result is LEGO, but on a massive scale.

For the finale, the teams come together for a grand unveiling. They will see their completed Da Vinci's Masterpiece, watch as the ball rolls perfectly down the Rollercoaster, laugh at the brilliance of their video and enjoy the completed LEGO Sculpture.
How it works
How does Together We Can work?
Together We Can is a non-competitive indoor team building event for 20 to 150 people, where every team contributes to four shared projects and briefs the next team on its progress. It lasts about four hours. Here's how it runs.
-
Canvas Art
Teams work on a giant canvas with acrylic paints, each creating a section of the overall design.
-
Rollercoaster Challenge
Teams build a working rollercoaster that carries a ball for over 30 seconds.
-
Think Outside the Blox
Teams use thousands of LEGO bricks to build anything from a company logo to something more abstract.
-
Commercial Break
Each team films a section of a film, and the next team carries on in sequence, so continuity is key.
-
The grand unveiling
Everyone comes together to see the finished canvas, watch the rollercoaster run, enjoy the film and admire the LEGO sculpture.

-
Creativity
Painting, building, filming and engineering give everyone a chance to create.
-
Broad appeal

-
Link to business objectives
Briefing the next team mirrors handovers and communication at work.
I thought that the event was very well organised and really engaging. The tasks were really varied and that allowed us to keep focussed. The team were willing to work with us and try and tailor the day towards a specific theme.

FAQs
Together We Can: Frequently Asked Questions
Together We Can is a cooperative indoor team-building event in which every group contributes to four shared projects. Instead of trying to defeat one another, teams inherit work from their colleagues and improve it for the next group.
The activity zones involve creating a collaborative canvas, constructing a gravity-powered rollercoaster, filming a continuous movie and building a large-scale LEGO sculpture.
At the end of each rotation, teams receive approximately five minutes to explain what they have completed and brief the incoming group. A poor handover can undo good work, making communication between teams essential.
Teams paint part of a much larger design on a giant canvas. Individual sections eventually come together as one collaborative artwork, so colour choices and positioning need to connect with work completed by other groups.
Each team adds to a structure designed to keep a ball moving under its own momentum for more than 30 seconds. New builders must understand the existing track before extending it with their own ideas.
Teams film separate sections of one continuing movie. Each group sees only the final seconds of the previous scene, so costumes, actor positions and story continuity need to be handed over accurately.
Participants use thousands of bricks to develop one large shared sculpture. Groups may choose a recognisable company design or something more abstract, but every rotation needs to respect and extend what is already there.
No. Success depends on the final quality of the four shared projects rather than one team beating another. The format is ideal for organisations that want cooperation without a scoreboard dominating the day.
The event runs for approximately four hours. Teams rotate through all four zones, spending up to an hour contributing to each project before the final unveiling.
Together We Can is suitable for approximately 20 to 150 participants. The rotation system allows larger groups to stay actively involved while contributing to the same four collective outcomes.
