The good news is that London offers a vibrant array of team-building ideas that seamlessly blend creativity, collaboration, and cultural exploration. Embark on creative adventure from pottery making to cocktail shaking. The city's diverse culinary scene provides an excellent backdrop for cooking classes or culinary challenges, igniting team spirit through shared culinary endeavors.

Whether through artistic workshops, boozy painting, or culinary escapades, London stands as an ever-inspiring canvas for nurturing teamwork and camaraderie.
However, finding remote team building ideas can be even harder. With mental health issues on the rise, organising live-streaming team building events is incredibly important. Let us help you find some amazing fun group activities, your team will be having more fun than just sitting in the pub next door to work. All you’ll need to do is simply choose which online team building event you want to do and we’ll do the rest.
1. Keep your team connected with a live-streaming cooking class
Cooking classes are a fantastic way to keep the team connected when working online and one of the most popular remote team building activities. Whilst many people usually opt for the quick and easy approach when it comes to eating, by taking a step back and learning how to make a meal from scratch actually works wonders, not only for your health but for your wellbeing.
It might mean getting most of your team to come out of their comfort zone and learn to cook, but it’s a team building activity which actually ticks off more positives than you think. Firstly, you’ll be working together to cook a restaurant-worthy meal you can all sit down virtually and eat at the end of the class.
Your team will need to spend more time in their kitchen than they might be used to, which will help them learn to cook more meals in the future. By cooking food from scratch, it makes you consciously choose healthier meals when eating out. When you’re eating healthier food, you’ll start seeing a difference with your energy levels and will be able to focus much more easily, which will improve your quality of work. It’s a win all round!
We’ll send your team a craft box delivered straight to their front doors, which will include a DIY cooking kit. This will include all of the materials and ingredients they would have been given if they attended the class in person. When you log onto Zoom, you’ll find your colleagues and a local British expert chef waiting to start the class. They will make the class as fun and engaging as possible!

2. Have virtual after work drinks with a virtual cocktail making class
If you’re looking to continue the after-work drinks but unsure how to do it, why not turn it up a notch and choose one of our fun virtual cocktail making classes. Having drinks together is an easy ice breaker, especially if you have any new team members since everyone went into lockdown. It doesn’t need to be any different getting to know everyone in the team, even if you have to do it virtually.
With our virtual cocktail making classes, it’s a great way to have fun as a team and learn easy cocktails to make at home. Whilst many people hold off on drinking cocktails for a special occasion because of the expense, you could potentially hold work cocktail parties after you’ve taken one of our classes and learnt all of the tricks to make impressive cocktails at home.
You don’t need to worry about sourcing any of the ingredients or tools to be able to shake your own cocktails as we’ll package it all up in our beautiful craft boxes. Inside you’ll find a cocktail set which we’ll send to everyone’s front door before the cocktail making class starts. When everyone has set up their own little DIY homemade cocktail bar, you’ll just need to log on via Zoom and you’ll see the team and a local British cocktail making expert ready to teach you everything you need to know about making amazing DIY cocktails!
3. Bring more plants into your home and build a DIY terrarium
It’s proven by putting more plants on your desk will improve your focus and attention at work. Whilst many people would love to have more plants at home, it can be a bit of a nightmare to try and look after them. It can be pretty confusing knowing when to water them and whether they need shade or sunshine to thrive.
One of the best remote team building activities is to learn how to make a terrarium. They are not only fun to make, they will kick start your confidence in bringing more plants into your home. And, we all know by having more plants around you helps you focus better and even helps with sleep too. It’s a win all round!
The good news about getting one of our terrarium kits is they don’t need much looking after. All you need to do is water your homemade terrarium once or twice a month! Our online terrarium workshop is not only a fantastic virtual team building event, it will be something that almost none of your team have done before. This will bring them out of their comfort zones and will bring them all together as they learn this new skill.
We’ll send everyone in your team a craft box lovingly made by our British makers and teachers which will include DIY terrarium kits so no one needs to worry about having to source any materials. When you log on via Zoom, the teacher will be ready to bring you a fun and engaging terrarium workshop, you’ll feel like you’re all there in person.
