Who this task will support
The Dwelling Place
WE ARE A SOCIAL ACTION PROJECT DELIVERING A SUPPORTIVE COMMUNITY TO THOSE WHO PREVIOUSLY HAD NO HOME, WITH THE AIM OF SUSTAINABLE INDEPENDENT LIVING.

The Dwelling Place is an amazing charity which provides housing for 6 previously homeless men for 2 or more years. Giving them the safe space and support to rebuild their lives.

At the house there is a garden which has unfortunately gotten overgrown over the winter but could be a great space for these men. So we are going to come in and begin the clearing work.

As always we are meeting at the Basingstoke Sports & Social Club at 6:15pm before we walk, run or cycle (there is safe bike storage available) to the space, getting there at around 6:40. If you would like to meet us there you are more than welcome.

Equipment will be provided, but I suggest bringing your own gloves.

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.

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 3km and 6km 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.

Ideal for beginners
