About this session

Important Information

The plan is to meet up at the Arsenal Community Hub on Benwell Road, and after a short warm up, health and safety briefing and a warm welcome, we will run together to Rowstock Gardens

A special referral from Camden Estate Community Food Gardens!

The team are looking for some Goodgym help to dig over a small patch of ground to get it ready for planting.

Other tasks include:

  • Cleaning the greenhouse

  • Treating the wooden decking area with protective varnish

  • If possible, planting up a collection of veg plants!

Task Location

23 Rowstock Gardens London N7 0BG

If you are not planning to run with us, our arrival time at Rowstock Gardens will be 7.15 - 7.20pm.

After our session, we will aim to arrive back at the Arsenal Community Hub for 8.30pm at the latest.

Things to Note

We are delighted to announce that we now have a bag drop and bathroom facilities for our group runs. Thank you to Arsenal Community Hub for accomodating us!

Please allow enough time to drop bags, as we will be running at 7pm sharp!

This task supports
Camden Estate Community Food Garden
A small garden of passionate food growers

Our community garden was developed on a neglected piece of land in 2013 with the aim to offer local residents the opportunity to grow a range of sessional vegetables and fruit. The focus of the garden is to develop community relationships and social interaction by sharing skills, knowledge and promoting the benifits of spending time outdoors.

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 group run. You'll meet other GoodGymers at the start location and run to the task together. If you can't run for more than 15 minutes without stopping or you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact your area activator Simon Fitzmaurice by email at simonfitzmaurice@goodgym.org.

Options are available to run between 4km and 7km in total.

Remember that we will be running to and from the task, so you'll only be running for half this distance in one go.
