Lightbulbs for the dark winter months

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

It went well, I arrived earlier than scheduled with agreement with Mr N who just passed his 90th! The rooms are dark in general and it's very bad for someone who is partly blind and struggles physically too.

First, I examined all the bulbs in the rooms, took the broken ones down, ran to the local hardware shop and bought 12 LED lightbulbs for him, replaced 8 of them with 4 to spare. But a few wirings are just not working so I hope the GoodGym will feedback this to the authority as his light in the loo needs URGENT attention, he uses his loo in the dark with only light coming from the hallway at the moment, very dangerous!

Mr N was very grateful and he made my day too.
