Newham

Mission

I mow where you live

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

My mission to help the lovely Mrs M was both very well timed and placed - she lives just round the corner from me, and it turns out my WFH routine lunchtime meander often goes near her house. So what better than to add some lawn mowing in - my favourite of gardening tasks, especially when the mission information notes that a new mower blade has recently been installed... Mrs M sadly lost her husband a few months ago and with family who would otherwise be able to help not yet able to stay overnight, it was a pleasure to step in as well as meet a neighbour who's lived in the area for 50 years.
