The Good Gym aims to connect good causes and people who want to get fit.  It will help community and public sector organisations, charities and individuals by supplementing and supporting their services in small ways.

It will help people who want to get fit by giving them meaningful places to run to and by connecting them with good causes in their area. 

One focus for the pilot project is to develop a supplementary visit and delivery service for elderly immobile people.
In this case runners are paired with elderly immobile people in their area and visit them on a weekly basis providing a useful extra item such as a newspaper and some regular human contact.
