We recently had our CAPE Away Day. Traditionally, these days focus on our operational needs whether thatâs safeguarding, policies, or strategically planning for the year ahead. This time, however, our CEO, Angela, recognised that what we really needed was a day away from work, dedicated to connection, teamwork, and simply enjoying each otherâs company.
Working in this sector isnât easy. Whether youâre on the frontline supporting clients every day or working behind the scenes to keep CAPE running, itâs intense. We pride ourselves on being a team that supports one another, because if you canât have a positive work environment, what do you have?
So, we headed to the River Thames in Richmond for paddleboarding, enjoyed a picnic in the park, took on a fun photo challenge, and rounded off the day with a lovely dinner at Sebastianâs in Richmond.
As we reflected on the day together, one thing everyone agreed on was simple: we had fun.
Sometimes the best way to strengthen a team isnât another meeting or strategy session itâs making time to connect, laugh, and create memories together. đ
