A friendly face

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

Mrs S' mobility scooter isn't working meaning she can't get around right now, so I popped in to say hello and check if she needed any shopping, care or support, and report back so long that arrangements could be made for her.

I parked a mile or so away and took a walk through the park in the sunshine, and was greeted by a very grateful Mrs S when I arrived. She needs some basic shopping so we will get this organised for her. I made sure to ask not only if she needed anything but how she was in herself, so we had a little chat. She has 9 tomato plants growing in the garden which I was very jealous of, and I told her that as soon as I live somewhere with a garden I will grow my own tomatoes too! I hope I brightened her day as she did mine.
