Team building
What do treasure hunts, circus classes, cooking

being loads of fun, they’re also all popular types of
team-building activities. Team-building activities are
common in lots of companies – whether they have ten
employees or ten thousand – and many people now
think that they are an essential part of managing a
successful company.
There are lots of different types of team-building
activities, from learning a new dance routine together
to spending a whole weekend camping in the wild,
but they’re all activities which are designed to improve
relationships between staff and encourage employees C
to work well together. Getting out of the office gives
employees a chance to get to know each other away
from their desks and spend some time together
having fun.
Although some people think these ‘away days’ are a
waste of time, research shows that there really are
lots of benefits in them for both employees and the
companies. These include higher motivation, better
communication between colleagues and bosses,
better problem-solving skills, and getting more work

Old spaces, new places

In many cities across the world, communities are taking over forgotten urban
areas and making them into public spaces for the people who live there. One
famous example of this is the High Line in New York City, a public park which
is built on an old elevated railway line.
Trains used to transport goods like meat and dairy products on this line from B
one side of New York to another, but the railway closed in the 1980s and the
structure was going to be demolished. However, some local citizens started
a group called Friends of the High Line and successfully campaigned to save
it. They were inspired by the wild flowers growing on the unused railway line
and decided to transform it into a community park and garden. Today, the mile
and a half High Line park has more than 500 types of plants and trees in it,
as well as artworks and live performances, and is a popular place for both
locals and tourists to visit.
In London, there are many community gardens in unused industrial areas.
One of these gardens is Nomadic Gardens in the East End which was created
on a small wasteland between two railway tracks. There are now a hundred
allotments (plots of land that people can rent to grow vegetables), bees and
beekeepers, a cafe, a theatre and a bicycle repair shop! There is lots of art to
look at in the gardens, including sculptures and other artworks made from
recycled materials as well as a huge mural painted by local graffiti artists. A
team of volunteers look after the gardens by watering the plants, painting
the buildings, cleaning the social areas and making sure the gardens stay a

Masquerade balls then became popular across Europe
A
and by the 18th century they were so popular in
London that a special building, the Pantheon, was built
to have them in.
During the 19th century, wearing masks went out of
fashion but costume parties, where guests dressed
up as characters from books or famous historical
figures, were very popular. Some people took their
costumes very seriously: at one party in the USA a
woman dressed up as the tragic French queen Marie
Antoinette and wore jewellery which had actually
belonged to Marie Antoinette herself!
The British Queen Victoria and her husband, Prince
Albert, liked fancy dress so much that in 1842 they
invited 2,000 guests to a costume ball at Buckingham
B Palace where they dressed up as King Edward III and
his wife Queen Philippa. More recently, in 2003, Prince
William celebrated his 21st birthday with a fancy dress
party where 300 guests, including Queen Elizabeth,
wore African-themed costumes.

What do you usually do with your stuff when it breaks? Do you

alone. As a society we throw away mountains of stuff each
year, including many things that have almost nothing wrong
with them! In 2018 around 50 billion tonnes of electronic
waste, or e-waste, was produced globally and in the UK alone
300,000 tonnes of clothing was sent to landfills.
However, there are now lots of initiatives aimed at
encouraging people to recycle, reuse or repair their
belongings rather than just throwing them away. Several
clothing stores have started clothes recycling schemes. D E
Swedish clothes retailer H&M was the first to introduce a
scheme like this. It gives customers a £5 voucher for every
bag of clothes they bring in, whether they’re H&M clothes or
not. Since it started the scheme in 2013 H&M has collected
around 18,000 tonnes of clothing – the equivalent of almost
90 million T-shirts.
Clothing stores aren’t the only retailers encouraging their
customers to be more environmentally friendly. Each year
