Rachel and Liz went on a mission to meet the guests at the Refugee Action Kingston health day. We set up our stall using a large GoodGym flag and decorated it with all the GoodGym merch we could find. Turns out that between us we have quite the selection of t-shirts!

Over the course of 2h30 we met lots of people and spread the word of all the amazing things we are doing in Kingston and Richmond, promoted the health benefits of running/walking, and encouraged people to come and try out our groups.

In between all the promotion, we chatted about potential collaborations and generally put the world to rights.

Such a lovely way to spend a lunchtime. We’ll come and visit you in Richmond soon, Liz!
