NTDC Wellbeing Fund

This funding supports the cost of a wellbeing or team-building activity for technical teams within our Partner Affiliate organisations. The activity will be organised by the NTDC, with support from the lead applicant.

This initiative is designed to support team cohesion and wellbeing across our technical community. Taking time away from day-to-day responsibilities to connect as a team can help improve collaboration, communication, and overall morale.

Activities will be organised by the NTDC and will vary depending on:

• Team size

• Location

• Availability

Who should apply?

Applications should be submitted by one representative per team, who will act as the main point of contact for organising the activity.

The representative will be responsible for:

• Submitting the application

• Liaising with the NTDC team

• Coordinating with their team

What kind of activities are included? 

Activities will be arranged by the NTDC and may include a range of wellbeing-focused experiences designed to bring teams together in an informal setting. Examples could include:

• Craft or creative workshops

• Group activities such as an afternoon picnic

• Visits to local attractions or places of interest

• Informal team experiences designed to encourage connection and relaxation

Specific activities will depend on factors such as team size, location, and availability.

While the NTDC team will make the final decision on the activity, we will work with the nominated representative to identify an option that best supports your team’s wellbeing and team building needs.

Key dates 

• Application window: 27th April (10:00) - 30th April (23:59)
