Southwark

Mission

Bags of fun

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

I think Lenka and I were both slightly taken aback by the room we were tasked with clearing, as you couldn’t see an inch of the floor on arrival! It was crammed with huge bags and boxes, but Ms F needed it all tidied to one side so that she could fit in a bed.

We quickly got to work and, with some great teamwork and efficiency (and strategic direction of bag placement from Lenka) managed to fill a cupboard and then stack all the bags on one side of the room, leaving lots of space for Ms F’s bed. She was very grateful (and impressed - she’d been worried when women turned up instead of men, but we quickly proved strength has no gender!) and off we toddled back into a lovely autumnal afternoon!
