We've been asked to help Move The Masses (a Yorkshire based charity promoting physical activity) to map all of the locations of outdoor, fixed fitness equipment or fitness challenges across Leeds.

What to do: Runners/walkers/cyclists go around parks and open spaces in their local area looking for the locations of outdoor, fixed fitness equipment or fitness challenges. This is a session to be done on your own, with your household or with one other person.

For each separate site, take photos of the equipment/area. When you get home please then complete this online form: https://airtable.com/shrEiBZ0LPeNtth2g

If the equipment is spread out around a park (several pieces around a lake, for example), please complete a separate form for each bit. If the equipment is all grouped together, one form can be completed for the lot.

But, why?! Move The Masses is developing an online map to show people all the great places they can access for exercise that are free. They want people to know where they can exercise and how they can exercise, in a space that's local to them. By the end of this year, Move The Masses want every outdoor gym in Yorkshire to be on their map - let's help them achieve this!

Good photo guidance: - All photos should be taken in landscape, not portrait. - Clearly show each piece of equipment at each site (either with people using it or not), and a wider shot showing what the site looks like, photos of signage relating to the site is also welcome.

Examples: The sites will appear as points on an online map, and people can click through from the Move The Masses website to find more info about those sites, e.g. https://www.movethemasses.org.uk/homestead, https://www.movethemasses.org.uk/yoractive-trail
