Improving Active Travel routes for all
About this session
Welcome to WWF x GoodGym’s Workout for Nature. From 7th April to 4th May 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!
We'll be meeting with SUSTRANS Volunteer John Kirkwood to help keep Sheffield's walking, running and cycling routes spic and span and improve Active Travel routes for all.
We'll be meeting John at a spot on the National Cycle Network (NCN) that he has identified as being in need of some gg love and attention.
Expect options for:
- Path clearing
- Cutting back
- Sign cleaning
- Litter Picking
- Sweeping
- Leaf clearing
- Sign maintenance
Please bring your own gloves and a head torch, so we can get straight to the task and get stuck right in!

Sustrans works in partnership, bringing people together to find the right solutions. They make the case for walking and cycling by using robust evidence and showing what can be done. Sustrans are grounded in communities and believe that grassroots support combined with political leadership drives real change, fast.

Make sure you've read our general guidelines for safety for taking part in a GoodGym session.
This is a GoodGym group run. You'll meet other GoodGymers at the start location and run to the task together. If you can't run for more than 15 minutes without stopping or you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact your area activator Tom Mutton by email at tomm@goodgym.org.
Options are available to run between 3km and 4km in total.
Remember that we will be running to and from the task, so you'll only be running for half this distance in one go.
