Who this task will support

Brighton Community Workshop

Tool Library | Maker Space | Repair Shop | Skill Sharing The Brighton Community Workshop Project (BCWP) is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company (CIC) established in 2019. The roots of which date back to 2017. We had our sights on renovating the old scout hut in Bevendean, alongside The Community Garden, sadly the hut was vandalised and later demolished. Our aim back then was as simple as it is today - Provide a city-based community workshop, run by volunteers and stocked with tools & work-benches, that we can all share. Like having your own garden shed, but without having your own outdoor space. Everyone is welcome to join our community. The BCW is an umbrella organisation with four cornerstone services; 1. THE TOOL LIBRARY - Stocked with tools we can borrow 2. THE MAKER SPACE - A creative space to make, build & get crafting 3. THE REPAIR HUB - Do the right thing, Fix it, don’t replace it, repair it. 4. THE SKILLS FORGE - Learn new skills & share knowledge.

GoodGym Brighton is gamed for the January Challenge!

Welcome Challenger!

And, don't forget to log on all your good deeds on your GoodGym profile and your run-kms on your Strava profile/club GoodGym to participate in the January Challenge.

Have you got Strava connected?

I often get asked about how to connect your Strava account to your GoodGym profile. Well, here is a nice handy guide to show you exactly what to do. Make sure you get yours set up before the January Challenge.

Are you on a mission to do a 5K parkrun or even a marathon during 2024?

Mine is just to keep up with running together with my GoodGym mates :-). Here are some tips on how to move from the Couch to 5Kto gradually work up towards running 5km in just 9 weeks

Happy GoodGym-ing!
