On Saturday morning I met up with Mrs D at her home in Wandsworth.

Mrs D has recently been sleeping in her living room following her partner being diagnosed with dementia.

Unfortunately a rather unsightly crack in Mrs D's ceiling has appeared in the living room and my mission was to get her safe and sound back to being able to use her bedroom.

Over the years and with her caring duties taking priority, a large amount of her belongings had gathered around the bed making it impossible for her to get in safely.

Mrs D provided me with some bags and instructions on how and where she'd like her things to be moved and I got to work.

With the carpet now visible it was time to say goodbye to Mrs D and allow her to enjoy the rest of her weekend!
