Join TCV Green Gym in Waltham Forest
TCV has two Green Gyms running in Waltham Forest: Lloyd Park Green Gym and Leyton Jubilee Park Green Gym. Chingford Green Gym is still going strong, but is now running independently of TCV.
Everyone is welcome to join the Green Gym and there’s always something to suit all levels of experience and fitness. You’ll have the satisfaction of working in some of London’s finest parks, while boosting your physical and mental health and meeting like-minded people. All necessary tools will be provided as well as a hot cup of tea/coffee and some biscuits during the lunch break. Find out more about TCV Green Gyms here.

Leyton Jubilee Park is Waltham Forest’s largest park, created atop an old landfill site dating back to the 19th century. Sitting in the Lea catchment, Dagenham Brook runs through the park, offering a riparian connection to the nearby Hackney Marshes. Our work in the park largely surrounds the maintenance of our recently planted woodland, which is still in the early stages of its life, work including tree planting, weeding and mulching. Other work will rejuvenate pathways and provide care for our newly created flower beds.
Join us in a park with an exciting range of habitats and species!

Located a step back from the busy Forest Road, Lloyd Park features a mixture of landscaped garden and strolling walkways along with first-class facilities and The William Morris Museum.
At the Lloyd Park Green Gym, The Conservation Volunteer’s work focuses on the more wild areas in the park. Much of our work centres around tree care, with other conservation work including bulb planting, pathway clearance and general habitat management.
Since 2013 TCV has helped with a large scale, lottery-funded transformation and restoration of Lloyd Park. First opened to the public by the Victorians in 1900 on land we can trace back to medieval times, the park is a valuable public space with a fascinating history.
