Mission

Bedder now

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

Today after work, I cycled over to help Mrs J by putting her bed back together for her.

I had helped her the other day, shortly before the movers came, and Danny had given her a hand that evening too. As I'd enjoyed our chat, and felt confident I remembered how the bed came apart, I signed up for this task to put it back together for her.

She'd been on the mattress on the floor the last couple of night, but was really enjoying her new home - as I approached I thought how much quieter and safer the road seemed, and on arrival we both talked about how lovely and naturey it all was.

I put the bed back together, then helped put on all the blankets and covers she wanted, and before leaving I gave her a card - congratulating her on her move (which had sounded pretty arduous!) from myself and everyone at GoodGym.

Mission accomplished!

Amazing, Dom! Great that Mrs J's new place seems nice and wonderful that you could return to see it and help her out. The card sounds like a really nice touch.
