At a glance

You're invited to the annual GoodGym Shindig on June 14th - 16th. You will join other GoodGymers, forming a cross section of GoodGym as a whole, for a weekend stay in a hostel just outside Birmingham.

GoodGym Shindig aims to:

  • Give all members a chance to have input into our future direction. Our business plan for the coming year is based on discussions at the event.
  • Learn from each other; swapping stories and sharing insight.
  • Celebrate everything we’ve achieved over the last year.

Workshops, parkrun, games, discussion groups and more are on the agenda. Your opinions and experiences matter regardless of whether you're brand new or a seasoned veteran, you will impact the future of GoodGym by being present and sharing. More than anything, it’s an opportunity for you to connect and have fun with fellow GoodGymers from across the country.

Spaces are limited and will go quickly. If you’re interested, apply here.

It’s an opportunity to let loose, meet GoodGymers from across the country and share your experiences to help GoodGym continue to improve.

An entire hostel has been booked for us; you’ll find the friendly faces of Area Activators, TaskForce and Members alike, alongside members of the central office team. This is an excellent opportunity to be at the heart of GoodGym.

What to expect.

Open discussions, workshops, games and parkruns. You’ll make new friends, share your experience as a GoodGymer, and get active whilst doing it #DoGoodGetFit. Expect to mob the local parkrun on Saturday and dive head first into discussions that impact the future of GoodGym.

More than anything, expect to have fun. Fun is priority number one and if you don't leave with a heap of new friends, something has gone horribly wrong.

Who’s it for?

Everyone. Any and all GoodGymers are invited - there will likely be more GoodGymers than you’ve ever seen in one place before. Whether you’re 500 good deeds deep or just finished your first, your input is important. Seriously, new joiners don’t shy away from this. You’re the most in touch with the process of becoming a GoodGymer, your input could pave a better path for thousands of GoodGymers that come after you.

Spaces are limited and will fill quickly. Don’t wait to apply if you’re interested in taking part. If oversubscribed, places will be allocated to create the best cross section of GoodGym by representing as many areas as possible.

GoodGym Shindig 2024 is free. Your presence is important and money shouldn’t be a reason not to come. If you’re in a financial position to cover the cost of your accommodation and would like to, there's an optional donation for half, or all, of the cost of your space. This goes a long way to supporting GoodGym’s ability to run events such as this.
