Did you know 55% of women feel unsafe exercising outdoors alone after dark vs 33% of men. With 72% of women changing their outdoor activity routines during winter.

lift the curfew aims to raise awareness of this disparity and bring together community groups to create change.

Marking our first group run since the clocks went back and the darker evenings rolled in the team ran together to The Copleston Church and Community Centre to help out with a deep clean of the community kitchen and dining hall

Thanks to everyone who joined !

Wow, what a turn out! It was great to see so many GoodGymers out tonight - thank you everyone for coming.

We welcomed Dani from GoodGym Lewisham for a spot of GG Tourism whilst he is house-sitting locally, and met Lucifer for his first ever session - head to their profiles to give them a cheer!

Tom had plenty of tasks for us tonight, the main job being spreading woodchip over the children's play area and around the pond. With lots of lifting and shifting, and plenty of raking, many hands made light work of the task.

Meanwhile, the rest of the team got to work weeding and pruning on the side path of the orchard. We temporarily lost David to a large bush where he was extracting a bramble. Sinéad's trimming of the rosemary bush left a pleasant aroma for the rest of the evening. The discovery of Fred the Frog led to a lot of distraction, and even a photoshoot, courtesy of Jane.

We enjoyed and evening of education, with history lessons with Jim, spanish with Dani and nature studies with Sinead. Other conversation topics includes Sandi Toksvig, Mastermind and David the Gnome.

We ended the session with picking apples and grapes, ready for our lunchboxes for the rest of the week.

we watered and shovelled compost !
