Smooth Moves

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

Neil and I signed up to help move a bed down from the bedroom into the living room for Mrs E.

When we got there we saw that we’d been nearby before on another mission, which also entailed moving furniture...we were hoping it wasn’t as big a mission as that turned out to be!

Mrs E’s daughter met us at the door and let us know what was needed...turns out it was putting a two seater sofa upstairs first to make space for the single bed in the living room.....

....it was fine!! The sofa was quite light and Neil carried the heavy end up the stairs and getting the bed downstairs was just as easy as it was light too.

Mrs E’s daughter was so grateful, as it’s not an easy time for her mum and we were able to lighten the load a little.

After our goodbyes we shot off in different directions with a wave!
