Who this task will support
The Purple Elephant Project
Every week we support over 100 children and their families with therapeutic interventions such as Play therapy and Art Therapy. We provide support for children and their families affected by attachment, developmental trauma or life experiences. Through specialist therapeutic services, we work to transform lives; enabling children to reach their full potential and a brighter future.


Join us for our group run to Chase Bridge Primary School in Twickenham (approx 3.5km there and 3.5km back, all paces welcome) to visit the Purple Elephant Project.

We will be helping in the outdoor spaces there so please wrap up warm for January. Tools will be provided but please bring gloves and a headtorch if you have one.

If you would prefer to meet at the task, that's no problem, just drop a note below or email lizjones@goodgym.org to sort timings. First timers are very welcome to come along and see what GoodGym is all about with this wonderful project.

Options are available to run between 4km and 8km in total

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

This is a standard GoodGym group run. If you can't run for more than 15mins without stopping or you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us.
