Know the activity
What if the best thing your team built today was not for the boardroom, but for a child looking up at the night sky for the very first time? The I See You Challenge brings teams together to craft functional telescopes from scratch using sustainable materials. Every component is thoughtfully sourced, every step of the build is a lesson in resourcefulness, and every finished telescope finds its way into the hands of a local community. This is team building that is as good for the planet as it is for the people on it.
Why should you choose it?
Combine hands-on creativity with a genuine commitment to sustainability and responsible sourcing.
Connect your team to environmental values in a practical, engaging, and memorable way.
Create functional telescopes for donation to a local community partner.
Appeal to employees who care about what their organisation stands for beyond its business goals.
Build shared pride through meaningful work made with skill and conscience.
The result
Teams finish the I See You Challenge having done something quietly remarkable. They came in with sustainable materials and left having created working telescopes that can open up the night sky for someone in their community. The experience deepens environmental awareness, strengthens team bonds, and gives participants a tangible reminder that thoughtful collaboration and responsible choices can create something beautiful. It is the kind of activity that makes people feel good about where they work.

No. The build process is guided and accessible to everyone. Teams bring curiosity and collaboration; facilitators support the rest.
Yes. Each completed telescope is intended to be a working instrument, not a prop, making the community donation meaningful.
Environmental awareness is part of the materials briefing and the build itself. Participants do not just hear about sustainability; they put it into practice.
Finished telescopes are donated through a local community partner, helping make astronomy and sky-watching more accessible.
