Guardians on the Go

We'd like to take this opportunity to introduce you to Guardians on the Go (GotGO) - a great community group that we are delighted to host at Craigtoun on Wednesdays throughout the year. In their own words......

"This fun and energetic group meets at Craigtoun Park every Wednesday at 10:30am during term-time in mostly all whatever the weathers! We do two-three laps of the park (walk or run) but we actually do so much more than just burn calories. We talk and walk. In the fresh air we share our stories of last night's lack of sleep, discuss questions about health visitors and primary schools all whilst getting out in nature. We have x5 running buggies which can be borrowed and stored nicely where we meet thanks to St Andrews Mens Shed. We enjoy a discounted cuppa in the cafe afterwards thanks to in the Friends of Craigtoun! We have a community of parents and carers online and in-person who connect with each other. Find out more via our private ever-growing facebook group (Guardians on the Go! | Facebook), which allows us to communicate what’s on. The activity promotes social, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health for children and adults alike – facilitated each week by Fiona Oxley, Mental Health & Exercise Coach (Facebook).

All very welcome to come along when suits you – please join our facebook group to find out more!"
