[Starter Session] Volunteer at Gunnersbury parkrun

On Saturday the 21st of September, we want to have GoodGymers fill the volunteer roles at Gunnersbury parkrun with our red t-shirts to help the event run smoothly, spread the word about GoodGym and encourage new sign ups!

After parkrun, we'll go to the café near the Sports Hub if you'd like to stay and chat ☕. Then at 11am, we have another starter session to keep the park looking beautiful by picking litter and cutting brambles. Whether you're a new or long time GoodGymer, come along to give a warm welcome to any first timers. Sign up here!
