Lewisham

Mission

Weed like, weed like to Party!

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

After taking part as pacers in an earlier GoodGym Parkrun take over at South Norwood, Conroy and myself booked into an hour long Mission to help Mrs V prepare her garden for her upcoming Birthday party!

This involved weeding between pavements, flowerbeds and deadheading in plant pots to make her beloved garden look its very best. Conroy and I worked for an hour in the sun, whilst under the watchful eye of Mrs V and followed her well drilled instructions!

The time flew by and 2 black carrier bags were full. After refusing a can of coke for our work we said good bye and wished Mrs V a very Happy Birthday for her party next week!
