Green Gym Session
 |
On arrival you will be taken through a series of warm up exercises to reduce the risk of injuries. The leader will remind you how to use the tools safely and discuss the task ahead. |
 |
There will be different jobs and tools to try out. Everyone works at their own pace and is free to stop and start whenever they want. All groups have a relaxed atmosphere and there's planty of time for chatting! |
 |
The great thing about Green Gym is instead of staring at four walls in a gym you get out in the open air. You will learn about environmental conservation and ways to improve your local surroundings. |
 |
Tea break is very important! Refreshments will usually be provided - some groups are experts at bringing along home made cakes as well! |
 |
Sessions generally last half a day. Most groups are run on a week day or weekend morning although please check with the Green Gym leader for variations. Sessions end with 'Cool Down' exercises and a general tidy up. |
 |
BTCV recognises that the best way to keep a Green Gym running into the future is for the local volunteers to eventually take over management of their group. If you are interested take a look at the start a green gym section. |
