Mission

Weed love to help in Mr B's garden again!

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

  • Katy Footman

Katy and Ben ran to help Mr B sort his garden out.

After an energetic run in the sunshine, Mr B asked us to help get his garden back into shape so that he can more easily get out there in his wheelchair.

We filled three big bags with weeds (while carefully avoiding his daffodil bulbs), cut back the hedges to allow easy access to his washing lines and battled some terrifying spiders.

Mr B gave us a very warm thank you and we ran off into the distance, feeling glad that Mr B's garden was well-tended and he would have much easier access outside.
