Agnes Riley Gardens
The park is located next to a number of large social housing estates. Clapham Park Estate, just over the road, is being redeveloped and large numbers of people will be moving into the area. There are three primary schools in the immediate area, plus a new secondary school soon to be developed. We already have some very committed volunteers giving their time to gardening in the park and they have told us they would like some support to run weekly gardening sessions which can help people grow some of their own food. We also want to help children better understand where their food comes from.

Harriet and the team have been in touch and need our help

Our task is to clear the pond of weeds. Assuming it is not full of water, it means some in the pond digging them out, putting into wheelbarrows and taking the loads to where we are dumping them!

This sounds mucky and enormous fun so right up our street. If you have wellies please do bring them along It's also moving towards head torch time so bring that if you have one as well.

What are you waiting for, get signed up.

Get fit, do good.

New to GoodGym?

This is a GoodGym group run, where we run to help a local community organisation and then run back.

New GoodGymers are welcome to GoodGym group runs - no one gets left behind. You're unlikely to be alone, hundreds of new people sign up every week.

There's space to change and leave bags and a toilet. We're not planning to do anything purposefully dangerous, but GoodGym takes no responsibility for your safety during group runs, you participate at your own risk. Participants accept full responsibility for items stored at Papa's Park, and Papa's Park & GoodGym will not be held liable for any losses / damages.
