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

    The Library of Things is exactly that - a place where you can hire tools, party gear, sewing machines - things you don't really need to buy but might be occasionally useful. It exists to encourage people to think twice before buying new to reduce waste.

    The Library of Things team has asked us if we can help spread the word about the Bromley LoT by popping flyers through doors.

    This will involve jogging and walking around Bromley - around 5k, but it will be stop-start which is a great way to build your fitness level. We always have a backmarker so no-one gets left behind :)

    This task supports

    Really annoyingly the flyers for this session haven't been delivered so we'll have to cancel this session. Sorry about that! If anyone wants to get together to go for a jog I'm happy to meet up for a loop around Beckenham/Shortlands etc. Let me know if you'd like to? Also I'm keen to find other sessions around the area so please let me know if you know anywhere local that might want a hand?! Cheers, Mark
