Who this task will support
Refugee Council Allotment
We will be starting an allotment for our client resettled refugees in Lewisham but are looking for support to clear the space so that we can get started. We can also discuss more long-term voluntary support if that is of interest!


Welcome to GoodGym Lewisham! We're a friendly and social group who combine exercise with helping out in the local community. We meet every week to get active and do a physical task to help the charities and community organisations and projects in our area.

The Task:

This week's task is our second visit to the allotment! We will be helping clear the allotment space for Lewisham Refugee Council. Helping clear this space will allow the team to start our allotment project which will have great positive impact on mental health and wellbeing and be a space for meetings and workshops.

The Run/walk:

GoodGym is for everyone. We welcome runners of all abilities and it is often possible to walk to the task if you would prefer. We always have a back-marker so no-one is left behind - we're about achieving something together so you'll always be welcome no matter what your pace is.

Lewisham

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.

Options are available to run between 2km and 3km in total

Remember that we run to and from the task, so you'll only be running for half this distance in one go.

This is a standard GoodGym group run. If you can't run for more than 15mins without stopping or you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us.

There's space to change and leave bags and toilets. We're not planning to do anything purposefully dangerous, but GoodGym takes no responsibility for your safety during group runs, you participate at your own risk. Participants accept full responsibility for items stored at Glass Mill Leisure Centre, and Glass Mill Leisure Centre and GoodGym will not be held liable for any losses or damages.
