Here’s what we’d do
Choose an activity everyone can access through the same shared channel, even when some colleagues are in one room. A remote participant should not be a small screen watching a separate in-person party.
How to make it happen
Go at your own pace.
- Before inviting
Choose the practical details
Test audio and give everyone the same instructions, materials and response method.
- The shared part
Give the activity room
Use mixed-location pairs and appoint someone to monitor remote contributions.
- A good ending
Finish at the agreed pace
End the whole event together before any optional local continuation.
Choose your version
A few things to know

Is this your kind of plan?
A fully remote social session. Simpler equality of participation, with less in-person atmosphere.
- Confirm remote access, captions and any materials well in advance.
- Confirm the date, meeting point or call link, and spending with everyone before committing.
