Hearing Help Essex
A quarter of a million people in Essex have some degree of hearing loss, nationally that amounts to one in six of the population. Hearing Help Essex exists to alleviate the isolation and loneliness that hearing loss can bring.

We'll be at Hearing Help Essex tonight (at Moulsham Mill, by the Army & Navy) to give their garden a tidy. We'll be weeding the lawn, paths and flower beds so the space can continue to be enjoyed by their service users. Have the house martins nesting in the mill fledged yet? We shall see.

All tools will be provided, but feel free to bring gardening gloves if you have them.

Everyone is welcome at GoodGym, we run at chatty pace and no-one gets left behind.

Car parking, lockers and toilets are available at our meeting point. Please bring a padlock if you want to use a locker.

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 4km and 4km 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.
