Giving independence back to individuals across the world through Give a Hand, a prosthetic hand team-building programme.
Studies have shown that engaging in acts of kindness and interactions of helping others are associated with enhanced feelings of well-being. Impacting our mental health and overall happiness for the better. Helping those in need can also help bolster our support networks and motivate us to be more active in assisting others, subsequently boosting our self-esteem and individual feel-good factor.
However, amid busy lifestyles and work commitments, it can be easy to lose sight of the world beyond our daily routines. We become siloed in our day-to-day activities, reducing our connection with others and, in turn, limiting our opportunities to experience fulfilment and satisfaction.

Prosthetic Hand Team Building
Lightbulb Teams’ prosthetic hand team-building challenge, Give a Hand, is a highly challenging yet deeply rewarding experience. It demonstrates how human determination and problem-solving can create a positive, life-changing impact for those less fortunate. This innovative workshop stands out as an exceptional team-building session—not only because it results in a tangible, life-changing prosthetic hand, but also because it is tailored to reflect each company’s goals and mission, making the experience unique, motivational, and engaging.
During the challenge, teams receive a self-build prosthetic hand kit, which they assemble together, overcoming obstacles along the way. Once complete, we collaborate with our charity partners to distribute the hands worldwide, where they are fitted to children and adults in developing countries who have lost limbs. Turning teamwork into a life-changing gift.
The Give a Hand Impact
The prosthetic hand team-building experience offers real-world impact, creating legacy, purpose, and meaningful change to life in a tangible way. Through this unique and innovative activity, teams directly confront challenges, develop a deeper appreciation for what they often take for granted, strengthen their collaboration skills, and renew their sense of purpose and resilience. These experiences are essential for fostering a successful and motivated workplace.
Charity-driven team-building programmes like Lightbulb Teams’ Give a Hand leave a profound impact on employees, thanks to the personal connections involved. With all our team-builds, we encourage delegates to write personal messages for the end-recipient to connect with. Designed to inspire and engage, the programme enhances employee satisfaction by transforming teamwork into a truly meaningful and impactful experience.
