WWF x GoodGym Kingston: Weeding for Staywell Garden

Welcome to WWF x GoodGym’s Workout for Nature

From 7th April WWF and GoodGym are collaborating on hundreds of sessions to celebrate Earth Day. Each session will involve a Workout for Nature - a physical volunteering activity which will benefit local green spaces, and give your own wellbeing a boost. Simply sign up below and come along. No experience required!

Raleigh House is a warm and vibrant centre and a great place for older people to make new friends. Their core work is with older people and their carers, and they aim to support their users to live with independence, dignity, to decide their own direction, and enjoy life as part of the community. Staywell work to create a greater understanding of older people's needs and their potential to contribute to community life.

They do however need help with general maintenance of their front and rear gardens and this is where GoodGym can help. The tasks are basic but necessary such as weeding and removal of moss from paths to prevent them from becoming slippery. They also might ask that we clear large weeds around the car park area.

If you want a good workout that gardening can provide then please join us! Don't forget to bring gardening gloves and sturdy footwear as the paths might be slippy.
