Mission

To Me, To You, To Me, To You…

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

  • Neil Armstead
  • Sarah
 
Sunday, 15th of January 2023

We met outside the property having both run for the first time in a while (Sarah running twice as far as Neil…). On entering the flat we met Bella, Ms S’s super cute doggy. After some fuss with Bella, Ms S showed us the furniture in her bedroom that needed moving to create more space and allow her to use the mobility aids she needed. We got to work moving some items to create some room to work in, and had a routine of move something, hoover underneath, move something, hoover underneath. Eventually with things in place, we set about a bit of furniture Tetris to get things exactly how Ms S wanted them. Bed goes here, bed goes there, drawers go here, drawers go there. By the time we finished things were pretty much where they needed to be with only some sorting through items for Ms S to do. We had a quick peek at some sleeping snakes, said goodbye to Bella and dropped some rubbish in the bins before the run (or bus…) home!
