Regular office events are a massive boost for team morale and an incentive to bring everyone together in person, especially when you bring in great food and drink. With a brand new year in front of us, we've put together a list of events and reasons to celebrate with your team for each month of the year...
January - Veganuary
Kick off the year supporting those colleagues undertaking the 'veganuary' challenge, and see how many other team members you can encourage to join in! All of our suppliers are accomodating of dietary requirements, but we also have a whole host of strictly-vegan suppliers who cook up an absolute storm. Try En Root for some sensational Indian-inspired vegan dishes, or Last Night a Vegan Saved My Life for guilt-free dirty vegan food, or maybe Wafflestick for a delicious vegan treat.
February - Pancake Day
Pancake day - a highlight of many calendars. Treat your workmates to the best pancakes around with one of our incredible crêpe suppliers. Tantalise your coworkers with savoury and sweet options from The Crepe Stop or keep it sweet all the way with indulgent toppings from suppliers like Bam Bam Crepe!
March - International Women's Day
Take a minute to celebrate International Women's Day in the office on 8th March by booking some of our top female suppliers - there's plenty to choose from! Whether you're looking to raise a glass with some drinks from female-owned Liquid Mobile Bar or enjoy some mouthwatering doughnuts from Treats Club, there are plenty of ways to support local female-run businesses.
April - Easter
While Easter itself may be a bank holiday, there are still plenty of ways to celebrate in the weeks leading up to it. One of the most notorious treats at this time of year, chocolate! Treat your team to chocolate fountains, hot chocolate or cookies from the likes of Chocolate Dino, or, for a twist on the weekly drinks, why not have chocolate cocktails from the Chocolate Cocktail Club. Either way, chocolate goes down well with any team.
May - Coronation celebrations
Quintessentially British suppliers like Queenie's Travelling Teapot or Sugar Tea Room are the perfect way to raise a teacup to our new King and give your team an unexpected treat.
June - Pride month
With a whole month to celebrate, there's really no excuse not to get involved in Pride month! Why not book some of our LGBTQIA suppliers, like the incredible Plant the Seed with their delicious vegan sarnies, or delicious cocktails and cookies from the lovely Wilde's Tipples & Treats. You could even develop a rainbow-themed Pride menu to support and celebrate the LGBTQIA communities around you.
July - Wimbledon
Strawberries, cream and a glass of fizz - is there anything better!? What better way to treat your colleagues than with the classic Wimbledon combo. Suppliers like The Strawberry Shop would be perfect, or go the extra mile and get whole afternoon teas for your team from Tilly's Tea. Whether your team are tennis-lovers or not, they'll be more than happy to partake in the celebrations!
August - Women's World Cup
Although the tournament kicks off in July, the final of the FIFA Women's World Cup will be held in mid-August. Book in some suppliers to represent the cuisines of the final-round teams, set up an office sweepstake to get everyone involved and enjoy!
September - Macmillan's Biggest Coffee Morning
Treat your colleagues and raise money for a valuable cause. What better way to bring your team together than for the World's Largest Coffee Morning in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support. And we've got plenty of incredible coffee suppliers like Routes who would love to be involved. Or, compliment your coffee with delicious homemade cakes, brownies and treats like those from Lovely Buns.
October - Black History Month
We work with some incredible Black-owned businesses - why not show your support by booking a selection of suppliers to visit your office throughout October. From the incredible Artel's British spin on classic Jamaican street food to Livity Plant Based Cuisine's vegan home-cooked Caribbean favourites, we've got plenty of suppliers to choose from and a great variety of cuisines for your team to try.

Pair with some spooky Day of the Dead inspired outfits and face paints and you've got yourselves a party!
December - Festive fun
Another year drawing to a close, December is arguably the biggest time to get your team together with everyone's favourite way to celebrate - food and drink! Mulled wine and mince pies, hot chocolates and sweet treats or full on Christmas feasts - whatever you choose, kick off the festive season with a bang for your team with suppliers like Dinner Ladies, The Duck Shed or Smores Station.
