Who this task will support
Hanover & Elm Grove Ward
Cllr David Gibson is well on board with Goodgym and comes up with various tasks around the ward to keep us busy & useful.


Can we help our local wards communities to scrape the weeds from the street pavements in our city?

This sounds like a call for help from GoodGym! YES, we can and we love to do so together with other community volunteers and the Tidy Up Team of Brighton&Hove Council.

Cllr Tim from Hanover & Elm Grove Community requested our help for a weeding community mission, and not only ;-) ... there will be some anti-tagging and litter picking action! Possible tasks include painting over graffiti, weeds scraping from pavement, and litter picking.

Bring your gloves, headtorches and not your best clothes for this session as some white and/or magnolia paint spillage is guaranteed :-)

!PLEASE NOTE:

We are meeting at the Queens Victoria Garden's statue, (1 Marlborough Pl, Brighton BN1 1UB), at 18:00 (sooner than usual) to get off no later than 18:15.

Later comers can join us a the bottom of Elm Grove, crossing with Lewes Road.

We will most likely do a run fitness session around The Level Park.

Walkable

You will be able to join a group walking to the task if you'd prefer not to run.

Options are available to run between 2km and 4km in total

Remember that we run/walk to and from the task, so you'll only be running/walking for half this distance in one go.

This is a standard GoodGym group run. If you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us.

Ideal for beginners
