The Friends of Caledonian Park have asked for our help with building a new pondlife project on the south side of the park. We started some preliminary digging earlier this year, and now they have the go-ahead!

We will be helping with:

  • Classic digging and shoveling

  • Path sweeping

  • Bush and tree clipping around the work area

  • Wheelbarrowing!

Task Location

The Tolpuddle Café, Calendonian Park, 37 Clock View Crescent, Market Estate, London N7 9FR

If you are not planning to run with us, our arrival time at Caledonian Park will be 7.10 - 7.15pm.

After our session, we will aim to arrive back at The Arsenal Community Hub for 8.30pm at the latest.

Things to Note

We are delighted to announce that we now have a bag drop and bathroom facilities for our group runs. This will be at the Arsenal Community Hub on Benwell Road.

Please allow enough time to drop bags, as we will be running at 7pm sharp!

Hi everyone,

According to the following instructions from Goodgym HQ, I'm afraid I have to cancel the scheduled group run to Cally Road Clocktower Park.

---------------------------

**Guidance to all GoodGymers:**

Subject: Urgent: Extreme Heat Warning and your safety

The Met Office has issued an official National Emergency, Extreme Heat Warning. With temperatures set to rise in the UK from Sunday 17th July and expected to last until Tuesday 19th July. The Central Team has assessed the risk of overheating and dehydration on our sessions as presenting a high risk.

In response to this, you must:

Only attend if the task is within walkable distance for you or if you can choose to cycle.

Go slowly, stay hydrated and avoid overexposure to the sun.

Only attend if you are fit and well and can cope with the heat.

Keep informed on tips for keeping cool and national advice and do not attend any session you do not feel comfortable to attend.

**Group Sessions**

All Group Runs between Sunday 17th and Monday 18th July will be cancelled. We will review the situation overall and the weather warnings affecting Tuesday sessions on Monday morning.

Community Missions can go ahead if they are in well-ventilated indoor spaces or in shaded outdoor locations.

**Missions and Social Visits for older people**

GoodGym will only publish indoor tasks and urgent tasks such as medicine deliveries and furniture moving to enable hospital discharge. If you choose not to attend please contact the beneficiary.

**Coach Visits**

Please agree arrangements with your coach that are safe for both of you and consider contact by phone or video call.
