About this session
In recent years the volunteers at Ravenstone School have developed many previously tarmac-ed areas of the playground into garden spaces, including an edible garden, a wild place for nature, a chicken coop, an outdoor theatre and many raised beds. The volunteering is run by a small, dedicated group of parents and volunteers, most of which have small families which dictate their ability to volunteer and as such, they've asked for some help from GoodGym. We have the second of our sessions here tonight, with jobs including clearing all the beds, spreading leaf mould to get out on the beds, clearing the leaf cages ready for this years drop, a clean up of the storage areas and greenhouse, pruning and shaping the willow tunnel and archway - and much more! Please bring gardening gloves if you have them.
Feel free to meet Lorna at the BAC at 18:30 to run down together or meet at the Ravenstone Schol entrance on Ravenstone Rd just before 7pm.
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 Anastasia Hancock (she/her) by email at ana@goodgym.org.
The total distance of this group run is 6km.
Remember that we will be running to and from the task, so you'll only be running for half this distance in one go.
Location
There's space to change and leave bags and toilets. We're not planning to do anything purposefully dangerous, but GoodGym takes no responsibility for your safety during group runs, you participate at your own risk. Participants accept full responsibility for items stored at Battersea Arts Centre, and Battersea Arts Centre and GoodGym will not be held liable for any losses or damages.
