Did you know 55% of women feel unsafe exercising outdoors alone after dark vs 33% of men. With 72% of women changing their outdoor activity routines during winter.

lift the curfew aims to raise awareness of this disparity and bring together community groups to create change.

Marking our first group run since the clocks went back and the darker evenings rolled in the team ran together to The Copleston Church and Community Centre to help out with a deep clean of the community kitchen and dining hall

Thanks to everyone who joined !

#LetsLiftTheCurfew

Five Goodgymers met at St. Faith's community centre after work on a Monday evening. They came to help Andrea from GROAD pack her van to the rim with donations from the general public that will be issued out to rough sleepers on the Strand on Tuesday night. The session only took them 25 minutes as they coordinated with each other to empty the shed (there were plenty of sleeping bags and suitcases donated), move it across the yard and lift it into the van.

Looking forward to doing it all again next month - last Monday of the month.

We headed out in a light drizzle with our friends from Holy Trinity, and it turned into one of our longer runs as darkness fell. 🌆 Nobody was dampened (spirits, that is). 💦

Tonight was prep for our screening of the People's Emergency Briefing in a few weeks' time. We pounded the pavements and flyered the neighbourhood to get locals excited and signed up. Honestly, we really did leaflet it all out there! 🥳📄

Tonight's flyers-in-chief: Ben, Tilly, Jo, RJ, Fi, Adam and Nicole 🏃‍♀️🏃🏾‍♂️💪🏼

A lovely evening for a run, fun friends to share it with, and Tilly's baking (incredible as ever 🍰) gave us a post-run treat to cake home... Another great task well done! 🧰❤️

See you at the next one (it's the social btw!). Bring a brolly... or just embrace the drizzle! ☔
