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!


Location
Town Hall Hotel - Hotel Entrance
Patriot Square
London
E2 9NF
Date and time
18:30 - 20:00
Monday, 20th of May 2024
Who this task will support
Hollybush Estate
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.


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.

Walkable

You will be able to join a group walking to the task if you'd prefer not to run.

Options are available to run between 0km and 1km in total

Remember that we run/walk to and from the task, so you'll only be running/walking for half this distance in one go.

This is a standard GoodGym group run. If you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us.

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.
