Who this task will support
Lord Leycester Hospital
The Hospital is a historic group of medieval timber-framed buildings on Warwick High Street dating mainly from the late 14th Century. Of historic significance, they represent one of the finest examples in Britain of medieval courtyard architecture. Clustered round the Norman gateway into the town, the 12th Century Chantry Chapel sits above it. For nearly 200 years this site was home to Warwick’s medieval Guilds.

Welcome to GoodGym Warwick and Leamington Spa! We're a friendly and social group who combine exercise with helping out in the local community. We meet regularly to get active and do a physical task to help the charities, community organisations and projects in our area.

The Task:

Lord Leycester Hospital have asked for our help with maintaining their beautiful gardens. We will be helping with weeding, cutting back plants and general tidying in the garden.

Tools will be provided but please bring a pair of gardening gloves and some sturdy shoes.

The Run/walk:

GoodGym is for everyone. We welcome runners of all abilities and it is often possible to walk to the task if you would prefer. We always have a back-marker so no-one is left behind - we're about achieving something together so you'll always be welcome no matter what your pace is.

This week's meeting point is not far from the task, so you can either run or walk as you wish. We will then have an optional fitness session in St Nick's park after we've finished the task.

Where to meet

The main car park of St Nicholas Park in Warwick.

Unfortunately the Area Activator has tested positive for COVID and there is not anyone else to cover the session so it will need to be cancelled this week.
