THE BIG MONDAY NIGHT TASK: Gardening and painting in Rocky Park Community Garden
Tonight we return to Rocky Park for some painting and gardening activity!
About this session
Tonight we'll be joining Margaret and Ash from the Teesdale & Hollybush Tenants and Residents Association for our second May visit. (We joined this small, dynamic team on 8th May to help fill planters with a lot of soil, and tonight we return for more gardening fun, including painting the planters in the allotment area!).
Come and join the team as we enjoy a short run from our lovely hotel base to give Margaret a hand helping maintain this large garden project.
What you need to know
We will meet at the hotel for a short warm-up between 6:30-6:45. You can leave any belongings securely here. Emma will be leading tonight's run.
At 6:45 we'll make our way to the task just around the corner to start our evening's activity. If you're meeting us at the task, the address is 32 Ellsworth Street, E2 0AX.

Hollybush's ‘Rocky’ Gardens and ‘Strawberry Fields’ orchard are now an established nature reserve with 79 growing spaces
The Hollybush and Teesdale Estate Urban Growers project began in April 2009 in Rocky Park – a disused children’s play area. Now enjoyed by the whole community, the area includes seats and communal herb beds for all to use.

Make sure you've read our general guidelines for safety for taking part in a GoodGym session.
This is a GoodGym group run, with the option of walking too. You'll meet other GoodGymers at the start location and run or walk to the task together. If you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact your area activator Laura Williams by email at laura@goodgym.org.
Options are available to run between 0km and 1km in total.
Remember that we will be running or walking to and from the task, so you'll only be running or walking 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 Town Hall Hotel, and Town Hall Hotel and GoodGym will not be held liable for any losses or damages.
Come to the hotel entrance on Patriot Square, not the bar/restaurant entrance on Cambridge Heath Road. Ask reception where to meet us if you can't see anyone in a red t-shirt.
