About The Garden Classroom

We regularly work in over 20 parks and gardens across Islington and Hackney but we can deliver in the green space closest to your school.

Our highly skilled and energetic team work with all ages and adapt sessions to provide inspiring learning and nature connection on your doorstep.

Some of our most established urban venues are gardens and green spaces in North London but we also offer immersive countryside days and residentials at idyllic heritage venues in Kent and Sussex.

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.
