Zipping To Work At Chiswick Park

Popular high-wire event for employees now in its fourth year

A total of 312 employees working at Chiswick Park, took part in the zip wire activity organised by Chiswick Park Enjoy-Work, the on-site estate management company.

The zip line began 50 metres above the ground – the height of 11 double-decker buses – and ran from from level 9 of Building 7 for 300 metres, reaching up to 70 miles an hour, down to the entrance of the Park. The zip line marked its fourth consecutive year at Chiswick Park and is one of the most anticipated events on the Park.

The activity was available to the 9,000 guests working on-site, from companies such as Danone, Discovery, Foxtons, Paramount Pictures and Starbucks. 587 people registered for the event via Chiswick Park’s community app, District Tech. A ballot was then organised for the selection.

Chiswick Park Enjoy-Work organises over 40 events every year for its guests working on the park, as part of its programme of activities and services aiming to improve wellbeing in the workplace.

‘There is no limit to making our guests enjoy themselves. We do our best to create memorable experiences at Chiswick Park and the zip line is definitely one of them.’ said Matt Coulson, CEO Chiswick Park Enjoy-Work.

Everything at Chiswick Park is designed to improve the life of all employees on-site. Set in 33 acres of landscape garden featuring a lake and waterfall, it also houses over 45,000 sq ft of retail space including an on-site Virgin Active gym, restaurants, convenience stores and a variety of pop-up traders and street-food vendors.

The Enjoy-Work team has also created a ‘Making life easier’ programme, which offers a range of 20 concierge services available to all guests during office hours to borrow and book.
