Important Information
There is not a scheduled group run this week, but you are welcome to use the Arsenal Community Hub for bag drop, changing rooms and WC facilities.
Anna and the team will be on hand to offer us some lovely satisfying gardening tasks around one of the largest green open spaces in Islington!
Our plan is to help with a large springtime planting project. Tasks will involve digging to remove weeds, lifting plants from the beds to new locations and spreading grit to improve the overall quality of the soil across the park. Lots of physical tasks- a good workout!
Task Location:
Thornhill Square Gardens, London N1 2BN

GoodGym is a wonderful initiative
Professor Lord Richard Layard 
'A quiet oasis off Caledonian Road. Plenty of space (it is the largest square in Islington) to picnic, rest, read, admire the flowers shrubs and trees, and walk a dog. Volunteers, with the council are working to encourage healthy activities, including walking and yoga, and also to improve the diversity of wildlife in the park.'

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 us by email at getinvolved@goodgym.org.
GoodGym is a community of people that get fit by doing good. We run, walk and cycle to do practical tasks for community organisations and isolated older people.
