Mission

Mint condition

2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Hackney.

Saturday, 16th of September 2017

Mrs R has had two hip operations and can no longer work on her garden. As a result, the weeds had taken hold and were getting out of control. Luckily she heard about Goodgym and at 10.30 one Saturday morning Ivo and I ran down to her house to give her a hand.

About 90 minutes of weeding including a tea break using mint from the garden later, we left the garden in "mint" condition. As always, it was a great healthy start to the weekend and Mrs R was extremely grateful, I even got to take some mint home.
