Sparkle is a local charity which aims to build relationships across generations. It helps the lonely of any age into a valued family and provides a break for carers. Older people, known at Sparkle as 'Grandfriends' and younger people spend time together in a way that enriches everybody.

They would like some help spreading the word about their amazing concept, so have asked us to come and hand write some envelopes and stuff them with information about how people can get involved which we did last week. This week we'll be delivering them!

Hi Tekeste, welcome to Goodgym! Great to hear you’ll be joining us. We’re going to be delivering letters for a charity. We meet at the BAC and run to a local church where we’ll pick up the envelopes and then we’ll be going to houses locally to drop them off. We’ll also do an optional fitness session. If you have any specific questions or worries just drop me an email on ana@goodgym.org

There's space to change and leave bags and toilets. 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 Battersea Arts Centre, and Battersea Arts Centre and GoodGym will not be held liable for any losses or damages.
