Parkview Care HomeWelcome to GoodGym Bexley!
We're a friendly group that combines exercise with practical help for local community organisations and charities. Every Wednesday evening we get together and head to an organisation to complete a physical task that makes a real difference. Afterwards we often go to a nearby pub or café for some social time together.
To get there we offer an optional group run. Whether you're an experienced runner or just starting out, everyone is welcome. We'll run at a pace that keeps the group together, and no one is ever left behind.
🎯The task
This is our monthly visit to Parkview Care Home. The care home team always make us feel very welcome, and they encourage the residents to get involved with whatever we are doing, so these visits are really rewarding.
In past sessions we've cleaned the minibus, rubbed down garden benches ready for the residents to paint, spruced up the courtyard so it's ready for people to sit outside in the warmer weather, done some gardening to keep the flowerbeds looking nice, played games and enjoyed crafting activities with the residents.
