Mission

Better plate than never

3 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Islington.

On a very bright and warm Saturday morning, we ran to help Mrs W with her beautiful newly fitted kitchen.

Mrs W needed all her pots, pans, crockery and kitchen essentials put into her spangly new kitchen cupboards.

It wasn't just simply putting stuff back in the cupboards, a lot of strategy was needed. We matched the cups to the saucers, put things she used most often on the bottom shelves and made sure she could locate all essentials easily.

Once we finished the task, we had a lovely chat to Mrs W about weather, politics, Scotland and kippers.

It was a great mission and really glad that something so simple made such a difference.
