NAME: MARY
In relation to my attendance at the Team Building Course on the 29th March 2006 in Lusty Beg Island, Boa Island, Kesh, Co Fermangh. It was an excellent course. It was great for building friendship and socialising.
I found the Personal Development Course, which I attended on the 30th and 31st of March 2006 at Omagh College with Anne McElroy, very beneficial for returning to the workplace and dealing with the public. It gave a great insight as to how we deal with people and to always be assertive and positive. It also gave great information on job applications and attending interviews.
The group were all lovely to work with, and most of them in similar circumstances to myself of going back into the workplace after rearing a family. I also have got great experience from my work placement at the Healthy Living Centre and gained great training in Word-processing Part I and II examinations. For the last six months I had a great change made to my life by going on the Delta Programme.

On hearing about the Trip to Lusty Beg I was very excited as I had never visited there before. I was slightly disappointed I was the only male but I met some of the girls before in the TTS [Tyrone Training Services] I am very impressed with what I saw and with the Team Building exercises. They were very enjoyable. People generally in life don’t get enough opportunity to enjoy these activities.
There was a great fun element to the day. I enjoyed the archery having never done it before. You had to really concentrate to hit the target. The staff were pleasant and helpful and Simon our guide made everything fun to do.
All in all I had a great day.

On the 29th March we went to Lusty Beg and while there we took part in a trust exercise. In order to do this we had to fall into out team mates arms. We also had a go at archery which was really good. In another exercise in the water we had to work together as a team to get the canoe to move.
The most enjoyable exercise was the 4x4 driving. I was really nervous about doing this but I put my trust in the instructors’ directions, did really well and thoroughly enjoyed it.
I would recommend this to anyone, it helps you to work as a team and recognise the skills you need to work as part of a team.
NAME: MANDY
The Team Building Course was really enjoyable. I would never have done any of these activities on my own. It was great to meet other people and learn about trusting each other in these activities. It helped me to recognise my skills and to work as a team and not on my own.
I would recommend this Team Building course to anyone because you can learn a lot about yourself and your own capabilities.
