About this session

Hi everyone and welcome to GoodGym Greenwich!

We're a friendly and social group who combine running with volunteering in the local community.

The Task

We're going to help out the Friends of Woolwich Common who meet each month to pick litter and to protect this beautiful land. They'll have plenty of bags and pickers so just bring some gloves with you. Fun fact: if you register to be an Environmental Champion at waste.advisors@royalgreenwich.gov.uk you can also get your own pickers from the council.

The Run

As it's marathon day we won't be able to do our usual route so will join me for a couple of laps of woolwich common before the litter pick!

Where & When

Join for the run at 10.30am or the litter pick at 11am - same meeting point. The what three words address is ///mouth.work.jungle. Just let me know which bit you're joining for.

The marathon route is right down Ha Ha road so you will need to get onto the common via Academy or Shooters Hill Road.

What to bring

Please bring some water and gloves if you have some, otherwise it's just yourself.

This task supports

We are a group of volunteers seeking to protect, preserve and campaign for Woolwich Common, a large green space in the Royal Borough in Greenwich, London.
