Southwark

Mission

Massive attack

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

Ms V's garden had grown beyond belief in the last year and she needed some Goodgym ruthlessness to crop it into shape. Paul and Frances were the perfect pair to tackle the challenge, armed with experience, pluck and determination...until it rained. They had cleared quite a bit by this point so sheltered indoors while it was really hammering, chatting to Ms V about the garden, siblings and the plight of the hayfever sufferer. And when it settled down they finished the challenge, bagging up the rest of the clippings, roots and mulch. Now Ms V can see out the window and even venture outdoors if the weather permits. P.S. No snails were harmed in the making of this report, and as few as possible were harmed in the fixing of this garden.
