Planet Mark visits its Beehive
Every quarter the Planet Mark team come together to reflect on our purpose and vision for our strategy day and spend much-needed time extending our positive impact to the local community.
This week our team traded in their usual method of work for a new way; the bee way. We spent the first half of our strategy day visiting Planet Mark’s beehive at Bee Urban.
Bees are increasingly under threat by human activity, yet they are one of the world’s largest pollinators. At Planet Mark, we understand the importance of bees in our ecosystem. Through our partnership with our valued member Hive Cleaning, we have adopted a beehive at Bee Urban.
From honey harvesting to frame building for the bees in the apiary, the team had a buzzing time getting stuck in and learning how we can further support bees and biodiversity.
We spent the remainder of the day with a little competitive fun as our social committee hosted Planet Mark’s sports day. It was a great afternoon of rounders, relay races, doughnut-eating competitions and connecting with our fantastic team.
From start to end, the day encompasses everything Planet Mark is about creating a positive impact with a team of passionate individuals working towards a better future.
