With the nights getting darker and outdoor temperatures getting colder, food banks get super busy around this time of year. Manchester Central Foodbank have a few locations in Manchester for accepting food donations to provide for those who need it. For other nearby foodbanks/donation points, Trussell Trust have a handy search tool.

If you have any items on the list, please bring them along.

We will be running approximately 1.4 miles (~2.3 km) from St Peter's Square (outside the Central Library, What3words: ///think.forum.votes) to ASDA Hulme (Asda, 100 Princess Rd, Hulme, Manchester M15 5AS). There is a donation point there for Manchester South Central foodbank and is open until late.

If you wish to meet directly at ASDA in Hulme, please let us know by commenting at the bottom of the page.

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 3km and 6km 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.
