Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by Woking runner
Three GoodGym Woking members set out to help WeACT Woking, specifically the Hedgehog division, raise awareness for hedgehog health. 🦔 This was through a fundraising walk, twice around Goldsworth Park lake which is a distance of 3km. This is the distance hedgehogs walk at night in search for food. 🐌
Andy and Nadia set off for a jog along the river to the meeting point just in case anyone fancied a steady jog to the task beforehand. They stopped by at a riverboat cafe 🚤 as they were a bit early. Whilst sitting there, along came Anne who was taking a lovely spring walk to the task. 🌷 Everyone then agreed to meet at Waitrose then walk onto the task meeting place.
The team met with Rachel from the WeACT team in one place then realised Ellen had set up the welcome table in a slightly different location! Oh hog! Quickly back on track and the GoodGym team picked up some flyers to take to members of the public to encourage them to participate. One flyer included a nature trail bingo where you had to spot different wildlife along the way. 🌼 🦆
Once the team had finished helping, Andy and Nadia went off to buy ice cream and Anne met with her daughter, son in law and grand-daughter to participate in the walk.
Some more nature themed tasks are planned for Sunday as well as junior parkrun.
Happy and safe sunshine to all ☀
