Mission

An apple a day keeps the curtains asway

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

Mr and Mrs L are in their 80s and have been married for 65 years! Unfortunately old age has left them unable to do things like hang up new curtains, so James and I made our way to their house after work to help them. The task only took 15 minutes and we had a good chat with them and found out about the James' and Bryons in their large extended family. Mrs L wouldn't let us go without having an apple, so with our apples in hand, we said our goodbyes.
