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

: Friday, 24th of November 2023

Here's what Miss E of W13 had to say about the mission:

Thanking Sevan and Kash for the great support you gave me last Friday in clearing out the storage shed and cleaning the area. I really do appreciate your willingness to help. It has made a great difference. Thanks again (beneficiary feedback)

Miss E of W13, mission beneficiary

Kash and Sevan went to help Miss E this lunch time. She'd been living in the same place for over 30 years and needed help to clean up and clear out her shed.

Opening the door, it was piled high. Piece by piece, Kash and Sevan removed Miss E's belongings and placed them on the tarmac outside the shed door. Fifteen minutes later, the shed was empty, apart from the snails, spiders and soil (!). Kash grabbed a brush and swept the floor and walls while Sevan bagged the dirt and beasties.

Next up was to clean the dirt and cobwebs off the items. The wooden bed parts, cabinet and chair were wiped down and neatly returned to the shed. The old PC tower, clothes and files followed, then, finally, Miss E's artwork and materials including some incredibly long conifer cones.

Miss E was very grateful and was looking forward to moving some of the furniture back into her house in the coming months. Another GoodGym mission to come.
