Four GoodGymers continued our benchmarking task of mapping all the benches in the city so people know where they can sit when they are on a walk.

The weather was less than ideal, and there were many MANY benches, but in true GG style, we had them all mapped and logged despite the rain. There was even enough time for a cheeky pint after!

To map benches in the Micklegate Ward

Looks at how York does to make the place an age friendly city through World Health Organisation checks. Age Friendly York is currently looking at Getting Out And About and residents are saying they need benches to break up their journey so they can get to the shops and other places.
