Welcome to GoodGym Newcastle

We're a friendly and social group that combines exercise with helping out local charities and community groups. Every Monday evening we meet to get active and do a physical task to make a difference in the Newcastle area. The GoodGym motto is 'Do Good, Get Fit'. We also have other sessions, such as this one, at other times of the week. We meet at the location without running there on these other days and times.

This task on September 23rd

We've been invited to Newcastle University's Opportunities Fair. It runs from 10am-4pm on the Sports Centre on campus.

The Opportunities Fair is a joint event showcasing Newcastle University societies and volunteering opportunities, providing a great opportunity to promote GoodGym and engage with students interested in getting involved. Last year’s event was attended by almost 9,000 students, offering organisations a fantastic opportunity to raise awareness of their work and recruit new volunteers.

Where we meet

We’ll be meeting at Sports Centre, Newcastle University, Wallace St, Richardson Rd, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 7RU.

Participating at GoodGym Newcastle
