What to look out for
Age Restriction

Make sure you've read our general guidelines for safety when running and at a task.
Hi, Does anyone know if the entrance is on Milward St
Hi Anwar, you may be able to access the hospital via Milward Street. Did Barts Volunteers give you exact meeting point, however, along with directions on sign-up?
Sadly no, also the invite is for today Saturday whi
While the website says Friday have I missed it no onw as the hospital seems to know any thing
Hi Anwar, I have just responded to your email. This sign-up takes place directly with the Barts Volunteers: this date does not apply to this activity (it's just to enable us to list as current activity). I do apologise if you've had a wasted trip.
Where is the meeting point please?
Hi Laura, Barts Volunteers don’t seem to know anything about us coming or GoodGym.. when I signed up this said Friday (today) and I received an email alert last night. Has this now changed to Wed? Didn’t receive a note about this..
I’m at the hospital now
Hi Natasha, so sorry you've had a wasted trip and this wasn't clear. We will try to change the system and the listing here, so this doesn't happen again. In the meantime, big apologies that you set aside time for the task and travel today.
