Here's what Ms A of SE22 had to say about the mission:

Spoke to Ms A who said that the runners were 'fantastic' and that the work they did was a huge relief to her. Nice work, guys!

Ms A of SE22, mission beneficiary

Scott ran from West Dulwich and Emma from Stockwell to help Mrs A sort out her garden whilst her husband was in respite care.

The front garden was cleared of dead shrubbery, which was then broken down and hidden in no less than six of the street’s garden waste bins (thank you to the accommodating neighbours!).

Scott got to work with his sweeping skills to make sure the streets were left in tip top shape before leaving.

Mrs A was very grateful as she had been overwhelmed by the sorting that needed to be done before her husband’s return home.
