Age UK Islington have referred Ms E for support with a gardening task. The client has very overgrown bushes in her back garden which she is unable to cut back herself due to recovering from a recent operation. As a result of her limited mobility, the bushes have become significantly overgrown and are now hanging over the neighbouring property’s fence, posing a risk of causing damage. A ladder will be needed as parts of the bushes have grown high. All tools, including a ladder, will be provided. Her garden is accessed through the house. Goodgymers have already visited and reported that a follow-up session would be ideal to remove some of the cuttings they didn't get to bag and clear the remaining part of the garden.

The client is worried about the potential impact on her neighbour’s fence and would greatly benefit from help to cut back and tidy the overgrown bushes. She is currently unable to manage this task independently and has no other support available.

GoodGym has listed this mission for one or two GoodGymers. Two GoodGymers can attend together, but the mission will still go ahead with just one if only one person signs up by the deadline. If you would prefer not to attend this task on your own, please email missioncontrol@goodgym.org as soon as possible. We will then make sure the task isn’t confirmed unless a second GoodGymer is also available to join you.
