Shift Manure at Paradise Cooperative Garden 🌱💪

Join us for a fitness session with a real community impact as we help out at Paradise Cooperative Garden in Wandsworth.

The task: We’ll be shifting manure around the garden — a great physical workout while helping prepare and improve this valuable community growing space. Expect plenty of lifting, carrying and moving, with a chance to get stuck in and make a visible difference.

Why Paradise Cooperative Garden matters: Paradise Cooperative Garden is a community garden that provides a shared green space where people can grow food, connect with others and enjoy nature in an urban environment. Our work helps keep the garden productive, welcoming and ready for the community to use.

🏋️ Great workout with impact 🏃 Fitness session — expect a good physical challenge 🦺 Back marker needed 🌿 Everyone welcome — no previous gardening experience required 🤝 Inclusive and friendly — all abilities welcome 🚻 Toilets available at the start 🎒 No bag storage available, so please travel light and bring only what you need

Come along, get moving, meet some lovely people and leave the garden a little better than we found it!

6km total distance

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

This is a standard GoodGym group run. If you can't run for more than 15mins without stopping or you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us or see if there's a starter session coming up in your area.

There's space to change and leave bags and toilets. We're not planning to do anything purposefully dangerous, but GoodGym takes no responsibility for your safety during group runs, you participate at your own risk. Participants accept full responsibility for items stored at Battersea Arts Centre, and Battersea Arts Centre and GoodGym will not be held liable for any losses or damages.
