Here's what Mr A of BH5 had to say about the mission:

Dear Goodgym I personally wished to say a HUGE thank you for your support with this lovely gentleman, this will have made a huge difference and is very much appreciated. Many thanks again Kerry (referrer)

Mr A of BH5, mission beneficiary

Mr A needed help moving the bed so Michelle and I quickly set to work moving everything out of the room to give us room to rotate the bed.

After checking we had moved the bed to the correct position we then went about moving everything back in but putting things on the bed instead of the floor so Mr A could access everything and have a good sort out after we’d gone.

He was most grateful as he said the same task would have taken him a week.

We left him with the bigger task of deciding what to keep and where to put everything!
