New and exciting dates for the diary at Quorum Business Park

Newcastle’s Quorum Business Park has revealed a busy calendar of activity for 2015 including pop-up restaurants at lunch time, birthday celebrations and cycling incentives.

Staff at one of the North East’s largest business parks will be able to keep their New Year’s resolutions alive by making the most of the ‘Better by Bike’ campaign which continues in 2015. Riders will be re-inspired by the ‘I love my bike’ campaign which will kick off at the Bike Hub just before Valentine’s Day.

Later in the month residents’ can join in with Chinese New Year celebrations on the 19th February when a Pan Asian feast will be on offer at lunchtime from city centre based restaurant, Electric East.

Quorum’s discount card, the Q Card will be celebrating its fourth birthday this year with a week-long treasure hunt between 22nd to 27th March, where staff will hunt out treasure which has been donated by Q Card partners.

Prizes to look forward to include a weekend for two in Amsterdam with DFDS Seaways, an overnight stay in Matfen Hall, the Copthorne Hotel or the Malmaison. Sports fans can try and get their hands on the T20 cricket tickets from Durham County Cricket Club up for grabs, while other residents might pick up one of the many beauty salon vouchers.

Waving goodbye to the winter, April will see the launch of the park’s first ever Triathlon Team ‘Tri Quorum’ in time for the 2015 racing season. Members will get a discounted race membership along with the opportunity to take part in organised open water swims and bike training sessions.

To put everyone in the mood for summer, Quorum is bringing the Mexican festival ‘Cinco de Mayo’ to staff. Lunch time diners can enjoy Zapatisitas Burrito Bar’s Mexican delights served outside building Q12, whilst listening to the tunes of a visiting Mariachi band.

Laura Barber, events and sustainability manager at Quorum Business Park said: “Our calendar of events at the park keeps growing each year. They provide great opportunities for staff to network, take time out, and learn from one another.

“It’s great to have so many partners involved in activities this early on in the year, we are looking forward to working with them – new and old. We hope the staff make the most of what’s on offer and take a break from their desks to enjoy some of the yummy world food!”
