RAFT BUILDING IN SURREY

Bring your favourite people together for a raft-building adventure at The SHAC, Buckland Park Lake, near Reigate. Perfect for kids’ parties, team building and stag or hen celebrations—with teamwork, laughter and a little friendly competition along the way.

Build it. Launch it. paddle it.

With guidance from our team, you’ll design and build a raft using inflatable barrels, ropes and lashings. Then comes the moment of truth: taking your creation onto the water… Will it float?!

It’s a chance to get hands-on, solve a few problems together and discover whose brilliant idea really holds water. For larger groups, ask us about splitting into teams for a raft-building challenge.

Make a Day of It

YOUR GROUP, YOUR RAFT

Raft building is great fun - not only ideal for kids birthday parties, but its the perfect team building activity for Corporate Days or fantastic activity for a Stag or Hen do.

FOR KIDS

Kids’ Raft-Building Parties

Book a birthday adventure they’ll be talking for ages!

Bring the birthday crew outdoors for a challenge full of imagination, teamwork and fun. Together, they’ll build their raft and put their handiwork to the test on the lake.

Tell us the children’s ages, your group size and preferred date, and we’ll help you plan a suitable session.

FOR CORPORATES

RAFT BUILDING TEAM DAYS

Take teamwork out of the meeting room.

Who has the plan? Who’s tying the knots? And who’s volunteering for the first launch?

Raft building gives colleagues a shared challenge, with plenty of opportunities to communicate, solve problems and enjoy time together outdoors. Whether you’re bringing a small team or planning a wider company get-together, tell us what you have in mind.

For Wedding Parties

Stag & Hen Raft Building

Get the whole crew on board!

Start your wedding celebrations with fresh air, a shared challenge and plenty to laugh about. Work together on one raft or ask about a little team rivalry - then see how your creations fare on the water.
