Hackney

Mission

Nothing else mattress but this!

2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Hackney.

Saturday, 23rd of November 2019

On a grey and drizzly Saturday, Amanda and Nicky arrived at Mrs C’s home to help with a bit of furniture moving.

First up there was moving a bed and mattress out of one of the bedrooms and placing it outside for council collection. Once this was done we were able to move Mrs C’s current bed into this room, freeing up space in her bedroom ready for her new hospital bed to be set up!

With a bit of shifting around of the furniture here, and a bit of de-and-reassembling there we were able to get the job done quite swiftly! Luckily Mrs C had some allen keys on hand, otherwise this may have been slightly trickier!

Before we knew it everything was in its new place and we were able to leave Mrs C, who was really pleased with what we had done and is now all ready for her hospital bed to be assembled after the weekend!
