Run, Walk, Restore - Plogging is an eco-friendly fitness trend originating from Sweden that combines jogging or walking with picking up litter. As part of Sustainable UCL's '28 Days of Sustainability', The BSSC Green Impact Builders will be collaborating with Wellbeing Champions and Camden Council to reduce litter and raise awareness about environmental issues.

We will meet outside of 1-19 Torrington Place entrance, completing a Bloomsbury squares loop ‘Gordon Square / Tavistock Square’ area – this flat and safe, all abilities welcome and there is no obligation to jog, making it accessible for a mixed-pace group.

This is a great volunteering opportunity for Staff and Students to get involved with the local community, boost wellbeing, enjoy being outdoors, and connect with nature while contributing to a cleaner local environment.

Meet fellow earth lovers, enjoy some fresh air, and make a real difference in your community. So lace up your trainers and bring your good vibes.

Let’s clean up the planet one step at a time!
