Who this task will support
Oxford Preservation Trust

This evening we will be back with the Oxford Preservation Trust, this time in Kennington!

The Oxford Preservation Trust have asked for our help clearing ragwort from one of their fields in Kennington. Ragwort spreads quickly and can be harmful to some wildlife, so let’s do some clearing!

Tools will be provided but please bring gardening gloves

We will meet at the junction of Playfield Road and The Avenue and walk to the task together. Location here.

There are loads of lovely footpaths over towards Bagley Wood so we will have a run after the task.

Options are available to run between 2km and 6km in total

Remember that we run to and from the task, so you'll only be running for half this distance in one go.

This is a standard GoodGym group run. If you can't run for more than 15mins without stopping or you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us.
