Who this task will support
Friends of Kelly Avenue Park
We work in partnership with Southwark Council in the maintenance and positive development of the park. Our focus this year is in establishing the garden area as an interactive space for growing food and other plants, and hosting educational workshops with local schoolchildren.

It's Wednesday night and we are doing it right!

Tracy from Kelly Avenue Park has requested our help. Kelly Avenue Park have grand plans to establish two huge mounds and install raised beds for planting. We will be helping by preparing the space for this upcoming work.

After the task, we'll be heading over to Peckham Levels for some board games

New to GoodGym Southwark?

It can be daunting coming to your first group run but we are a nice welcoming bunch! All abilities welcome, whether you're a new runner or have been running for years.

Important Information

We meet at Old Spike Cafe in Peckham from 18:30 for a 18:45 start. You can leave bags in the cafe and use their toilets before we head out if you need to.

After a warm-up, we run together as a group. If there are loads of us, there will be a back marker to ensure no one is left behind. We run up to 1.5km to the task where we spend 50 minutes helping out before running back to Peckham (back by 20:15 latest).

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. Participants accept full responsibility for items stored at Old Spike Roastery, and Old Spike Roastery and GoodGym will not be held liable for any losses or damages.
