Mission

Saturday Shop

1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Wandsworth.

Ms P was in good spirits when I arrived at her home in Wandsworth on Saturday morning.

Ms P had a long list of essential items that she needed collected from the local supermarket, so after a brief check in, I took a handful of shopping bags and I was on my way.

Maybe it was the sun, but it was very busy when I arrived at the supermarket! I managed to get everything but 1 item on the list, so close!

A short walk back to deliver everything to Ms P, that was that.

Ms P mentioned that she is hopefully moving into sheltered accommodation in the next few weeks (after 49 years of living at her current place!) so this may have been her last Goodgym mission. It my pleasure, Ms P, and we wish you well in your next chapter!
