The Finchley CharitiesHelp maintain the Finchley Charities Community Allotment, where fresh produce is grown for communal meals supporting older and disabled people living in sheltered housing.
We’ll be helping with a variety of seasonal tasks such as planting, harvesting, weeding and general maintenance. GoodGym’s support also helps make the allotment safer and easier to use for the volunteer groups, including young people from a local schools and adults with physical or learning disabilities.
No experience is needed and all tools will be provided. Come along, get active, meet friendly people and support a fantastic local community project. I’m sharing a what3words address to help you find this specific location. Tap to see exactly where it is:

Fuel the Land, Lift the Beds!
📍 Mission Location: Fuel Land East Finchley London N2 8HP
(We’ll meet at the Phoenix and head over together – it’s a nice short distance so perfect for walkers too.)
This is practical, hands-on work that will directly improve accessibility and inclusion within this community space. Expect moving soil, filling beds, teamwork and that very satisfying “before and after” feeling.
Why it matters
The Finchley Charities do brilliant work locally, and improving access means more members of the community can enjoy and benefit from the garden space. Small physical changes can make a big difference.
What to bring • Gloves (if you have them) • Headtorch (just in case) • Clothes you don’t mind getting muddy • Big smiles and teamwork energy
All fitness levels welcome. Whether you run, jog, walk or just meet us there — you’ll be part of something meaningful.
Let’s fuel the land… and ourselves.

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.
