About the task
During this Great Big Green Week we are joining a wave of support for action to protect the planet with the Friends of Vale Park. Lucy asked a return to weeding of rose beds in Portslade and we love to help them!
❓ What is the Task?
We will be:
- Unbounding roses from weeds
- Have fun together :-)
📍 Where?
- If running/walking, meet at 6:15pm @ Peace Statue, Hove next to Hove Lawans to leave soon after;
- If biking, meet me at from 6:15pm @ Queens Victoria Statue (1 Marlborough Pl, Brighton BN1 1UB) to leave soon after and catch the runners;
- Regardless where you come from, it would be fun you join us at the task from 18:45 for volunteering together with the Friends of Vale Park.

Make sure you've read our general guidelines for safety for taking part in a GoodGym session.
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 your area activator STEFANIA ROSSO (she/her) by email at stefania@goodgym.org.
Options are available to run between 5km and 10km in total.
Remember that we will be running to and from the task, so you'll only be running for half this distance in one go.
