Anna and the team will be on hand to offer us some lovely satisfying gardening tasks around one of the largest green open spaces in Islington!

Our plan is to help with a large springtime planting project. Tasks will involve digging to remove weeds, lifting plants from the beds to new locations and spreading grit to improve the overall quality of the soil across the park. Lots of physical tasks- a good workout!

New to GoodGym?

This is a GoodGym group run, where we run to help a local community organisation and then run back.

New GoodGymers are welcome to GoodGym group runs - no one gets left behind. You're unlikely to be alone, hundreds of new people sign up every week.
