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

    In the UK, poppies symbolise the sacrifices made by those who served in wars and act as a reminder of the bravery of the Armed Forces community.

    In October we helped Discover Welling put up remembrance poppies on lamp posts along Welling High Street, as a mark of respect for Armistice Day and Remembrance Day.

    🎯The task

    In this session we'll be helping to take down the Remembrance poppies and keeping them safe to be used again next year.

    We’ll work our way along one side of the road, then head back along the other, collecting the poppies and reusable cable-ties as we go.

    It’s a simple task with a surprisingly good step count — see you there.

    📍When and where

    Meet at Welling Library on Welling High Street, DA16 3PA at 3pm.

    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

    This session is organised by your Taskforce, a group of experienced GoodGym members in your area. They are not responsible for your safety. You should feel confident to participate in the session as it is described and you do so at your own risk.
