Sand moving at Stepney Bank Stables

Welcome to GoodGym Newcastle

We're a friendly and social group who combine exercise with helping out local charities and community groups. Every Monday evening we meet to get active and do a physical task to make a difference in the Newcastle area.

This task on March 23rd

Join us at Stepney Bank Stables to help them move sand to their outdoor arena. This task will involve filling wheelbarrows with the sand and moving it, so it will be a bit more physical than many of our tasks. Meet from 6pm for a 6:15pm start. Optional short run, walk or cycle before we start moving the sand.

Where we meet

We’ll be meeting at Stepney Bank Stables, NE1 2NP. There’ll be GoodGymers in the reception area, look out for the red or black GoodGym t-shirts if you are new! Stepney Bank Stables has a free car park if you are driving there, but walking, running, cycling or using public transport is recommended.

This task is actually at Stepney Bank Stables, but as with a typical Monday night when we are running elsewhere, you can leave our bags and valuables in the staff room, which is able to be locked and is secure. We also have access to the toilet facilities in the building.

Participating at GoodGym Newcastle

GoodGym is for everyone. We welcome runners of all abilities, including absolute beginners or those returning from injury.

There will always be a back marker and/or walk leader on every run or walk to a task, so nobody will ever get left behind - no matter what your pace is.
