Southwark

Mission

Lindy's first "mission" mission, but does it mattress?

2 GoodGymers made their way 5.0km to help an isolated older person in Southwark.

Lindy and Sam met outside Ms. R's flat in Bermondsey.

They met Ms. R's daughter, Carol, who let them in and introduced them to Ms. R and their dog.

The task was simple (enough). Since Ms. R had a fall, she has been sleeping in the living room. Yet, now she is strong enough to sleep upstairs.

In order for the bed to be moved, we had to clear the spare bedroom which had a chair, coffee table and an old stereo system. Once this was moved to the kitchen temporarily, Lindy and Sam proceeded to move the bed in parts - headboard, base and then mattress. It took them just over 15 minutes in total!

Not bad for a Friday afternoon's work and Lindy's first mission mission.
