Who this task will support
YMCA - Brighton
We have prevented homelessness in Brighton and Hove for over 150 years. We support our clients on a pathway towards fulfilled and empowered living, across housing and support services. Many young people have never known these things; other people have lost one or more as they grew up, but we all need them. All of us. At YMCA, we provide these critical foundations for a fresh, strong start for young people and a better quality of life in the community.


Providing a nice environment is key for progress and a sense of belonging for the YMCA residents at Stanley Court . Besides residents can get involved in planting and making the garden a space that they would want to hang out in.

The back garden needs to be weeded and cleared, so that YMCA can begin to establish a gardening group ( a group that the residents love) in the spring and plant some flowers.

Also the side alleys have built up with rubbish and it would be great to get this cleared, as it is peoples homes.

Sounds the perfect call for some GoodGym action!

We will meet at usual at the Victoria Statue at 18:15, to leave no later than 18:30. Later comers can join at the task at 78-81 Lewes Road, Brighton, BN2 3JZ

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.
