It’s been a challenging 24 months for all of us. As restrictions ease and people return to the office, life is supposed to be getting back to normal.

But after months of endless zoom meetings and remote working, it’s no wonder many employees are feeling a little disconnected and lacking in motivation.

Now is the time for companies to think creatively about how to help their staff readjust. An effective way to restore team spirit is to treat staff to an away day.

There are loads to choose from but for something a bit different look to The Flower Bowl Entertainment Centre in Preston. It offers a range of innovative team-building activities designed to help people let off steam, relax and have fun.

Whether it’s a challenge on the Olympic-sized curling rink, a game of deluxe ten pin bowling or a chilled out VIP movie experience, its team-building days will help everyone get back on the right track.

10 reasons to choose The Flower Bowl for your next team building event

Location: The Flower Bowl is situated just off the M6 making it easily accessible from Manchester, Liverpool, Lancaster, Preston, Warrington, Bolton and Chorley. 

Curling: It’s home to the only dedicated curling rink in the north of England! Thanks to the 2022 Winter Olympics there’s never been a better time to hit the ice.

Sustainability: The Flower Bowl was designed with sustainability at its heart. Check out the curved meadow grass roof on top of the eco-friendly venue.

Easy booking: With dedicated events packages, there’s something to suit every team, big or small! The events team will help you organise everything and ensure your day runs smoothly.

Activities: The Flower Bowl is home to eight lanes of luxury ten pin bowling, a three-screen premium cinema, the north of England’s only Curling hall, a crazy pool course and crazy golf!

Food and Drink: Whether it’s cocktails at Barbossa, contemporary dining at Blooms, a flat white at Oasis, or good old fish and chips at The Ocean, The Flower Bowl has got you covered.

Safety: It fully adheres to the latest government guidelines. Meeting rooms are large and well-ventilated and hand-sanitising stations are located throughout the venue.

Style: The bright, contemporary interiors have a boutique feel and high-end design aesthetic.

Accessibility: With free onsite parking, including dedicated disabled and less abled parking spaces, a trip to The Flower Bowl is a stress free experience. The venue is all on one level, making it fully wheelchair accessible. Plus, The Flower Bowl is fitted out with state of the art disabled toilet facilities.
