Wandsworth

Mission

Now Yucca see me, now you don't

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

  • Sophie Humphrey
  • Helen Killingley
 
Sunday, 13th of August 2017

Sophie and I met, overdressed in our very best long sleeved gear on a seemingly rare sunny day in August to battle our way through an extremely overgrown garden. We were welcomed by Ms I who told us she hadn't been able to access her garden in years. She hoped we'd find her yucca plant amongst the overgrowth whilst warning us there were enough nettles to make nettle tea and that there was a pond somewhere within the thick of it with its resident frog Freddie. After a strenuous 2 hours we were rewarded with the find of her yucca plant and scored an 11/10 by Ms I. A Sunday morning well spent.
