Who this task will support
YMCA - Brighton
We have prevented homelessness in Brighton and Hove for over 150 years. We support our clients on a pathway towards fulfilled and empowered living, across housing and support services. Many young people have never known these things; other people have lost one or more as they grew up, but we all need them. All of us. At YMCA, we provide these critical foundations for a fresh, strong start for young people and a better quality of life in the community.


Providing a nice environment is key for progress and a sense of belonging for the YMCA residents at Stanley Court

Since our last visit at the beginner of the summer, YMCA managed to run a gardening group by involving residents in making the back garden a space that they liked to hang out in. Residents have since turned it into a space to do some art, but now the bind weed and plants are taking over again and they need our help to get it clear.

Let's return for some GoodGym action!

Depending on number of participants, there might be an additional option for action to distribute a community newsletter in Round Hill neighborhood.

We will meet at the Victoria Statue at 18:00, to leave soon after to catch most of the daylight. Later comers can join at the task at 78-81 Lewes Road, Brighton, BN2 3JZ

Walkable

You will be able to join a group walking to the task if you'd prefer not to run.

Options are available to run between 2km and 4km in total

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

This is a standard GoodGym group run. If you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us.
