Gardening at St Augustine's
Blooming well for their spirits

Date and time
18:45 - 20:30Welcome to GoodGym Croydon
We're a friendly and sociable group who combine exercise with helping out in the local community. We meet every week to get active and do a physical task to help charities, community organisations and projects in our area.
Come and join us on our weekly group task.
We meet at 6.45pm and start running/walk or cycle at 7.00. We will work hard on our task for 30 to 45 minutes, have a fun fitness session then we all run/walk or cycle back to the start venue by 8.30pm.
The Task:
Following their recent success in this year's London in Bloom we will be heading to St Agustine's to begin working on recommendations from the judges report. We will be decanting a ton bag of wood chips, a bit of digging, removing one small dead bush, digging a tree hole and a bamboo barrier, some edging or digging another border trench if any time is left.
The Run/walk/cycle:
GoodGym is for everyone. We welcome runners/walkers and cyclist of all abilities. It is often possible to walk/cycle to some of the tasks if you would prefer.
When jogging we always have a back-marker so no-one is left behind - we're about achieving something together so you'll always be welcome no matter what your pace is.
PLEASE NOTE OUR NEW START LOCATION, UNFORTUNATELY WE HAVE NO WHERE TO CHANGE OR STORE BAGS
HEAD TORCHES IT'S GOING TO BE DARK

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