Ho ho hoe those weeds gotta go!
2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Southwark.
- Sunday, 9th of December 2018
Here's what Ms A of SE15 had to say about the mission:
Ms A called the office to thank us and let us know how grateful she was for the runners helping her out in her garden. She said that they did an 'excellent' job and that they've made a real difference, well done guys!
On a sunny Sunday afternoon, two GoodGymmers (Nat & Girija) arrived at Ms A's place to do some serious weeding. After getting rid of the initial viney layer of tangled up weeds (think Devil's Snare, Potter fans), we got down to business removing the more hardy weeds with fork, hoe, and broom. 90 swift minutes later (with some spirited help from Ms A herself too!) we'd cleared all but the most stubborn of roots and made the space useable again.
