Junkyard Golf Club

⚡️Head Office Takeover ⚡️ Earlier this year, we created an incentive across all our venues. The winning venue would receive an additional summer party, and the Head Office team would cover their shift so they can go out and celebrate.    Our winner was the Liverpool team! 🎉   Congratulations to the whole team who went all out for this challenge and did a fantastic job! 🌟

Last month our teams closed their doors for a day to celebrate their Summer Parties! 🎉    It was a great opportunity for everyone to get together and celebrate their continued hard work. It's because of our teams that we can create such fantastic guest experiences, so this celebration was well deserved.     Well done team! 👏 

Last week, when the rain finally stopped, our HQ team took a break from their laptops and spent the day outside hiking the Hathersage & Stanage Edge Circular 🥾🌿 A great day for our Summer team building day, to reconnect with one-another in nature 🌳☀️

Congratulations to our most recent winners of the Junkyard Golf Club People’s Choice Award 🏆    Chosen by their team mates for always putting others first, these champs have bagged £150 to spend on a pair of shoes of their choice 🎉    We wanted to share some of the awesome comments about our team:    🌟 Nicole Kerr, Bar Team, Liverpool  "She is always herself on shift and is a solid member of the team.

Rosie is constantly running about the building doing jobs and making sure everyone is ok, constantly working at 110%. Lovely to be around too and is always smiling :)"    🌟 Demi Raisbeck, Bar Team, Newcastle  ''Demi Raisbeck has been brilliant. Demi has and still continues to show all company values.
