Sofa from the goal!

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

Excitingly this was Roz's first ever GoodGym good deed! Welcome to the team Roz!

We met at 1 on the dot and headed in ready to flex our sofa moving muscles and get Mrs J's old sofa out the way of her TV and into the garden to be collected by the council.

Unfortunately the sofa was just a touch too wide to get through the front door and no amount of attempts to take it apart, change its position or try other doors/rooms did the trick. We left with sad faces having not quite completed the mission, but we did put the sofa back in a much better place than it was left by the delivery people, not blocking the TV!

Well done girls! Sounds like you did a good job even without overcoming the impossible...

Boo :-( I bet that was a great weight-lifting workout, though!

Well done both - at least Mr J can see the TV better now, and those supporting him have some great intel on how they can follow up!
