On a grey September Sunday morning, a crack team of 4 GoodGymmers headed to the Knavesmire to help Age UK set up their annual Keep Your Dog event.
We'd been asked if some GoodGym runners can help with the setting up for an event being run to support the Keep Your Pet scheme. Keep Your Pet is a service which helps people meet their pets' needs while in hospital or recovering from time there; their support includes walking dogs, popping round to feed pets, and so on.
We helped put up a few gazebos and pen out an area to be used for the dog agility course later in the morning, being careful to avoid the junior parkrun happening meters away. - before long we were done, and we headed to grab some brunch with Mitch who had just been on important clipboard duty at the junior parkrun (the run report title is both a hilarious pun linking gazebo erection and our canine beneficiaries, and a reference to Mitch's favourite style of dancing probably).
