Getting there

For this session we're going to meet at the task, so you'll need to make your own way there. We encourage you to walk, run, or cycle to do so!

    About this session

    Task details

    We're so happy to be able to work with Goldsmiths Community Centre again!

    The volunteers have been busy through lockdown, working in the outdoor space, growing vegetables and maintaining the garden. Ahead of the return of visitors, the edges of the space need our attention, with brambles and nettles taking over. We will cut these back using shears and so on, so please bring your own gardening gloves to protect your hands and to avoid having to borrow them.

    Please arrive promptly for an 11am start, meeting at the Castillon Road entrance (near the 124 bus stop), you will then be shown into the space safely. You will be met by Roz, who will give direction on where to wash your hands and to access tap water if you need it (please bring your own bottle). As you are working with potentially sharp plants, you might like to cover your arms and legs.

    Don't forget that you can head off for a socially distanced run with fellow GoodGymers after the task and remember to take photos and share these in the report or via Twitter (@GGLewisham)!

    What to look out for

    Make sure you've read our general guidelines for safety for taking part in a GoodGym session.

    This is a GoodGym community mission. When we're doing a community mission we make our own way to the task, so you can choose to walk, run, or cycle. Thinking of cycling - check out our FAQs
