Mission

We left singing... do-re-mi-SOFA-la-ti-da

3 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Southwark.

Mrs M's daughter welcomed us at the door and after arriving slightly late the 3 of us were keen to get the job done quickly. We were shown where we needed to move the sofa and Alyx got the easy jobs of moving the cushions and feet. Meanwhile David and Jack put their muscles to work carrying the sofa, tilting it this way and that, up stairs and around corners. We got it into position in its room for storage.

Sofa, so good. We had another small task though - putting a couple of armchairs on top of the sofa to make space in the storage room for other things. We got this done very quickly and were soon leaving Mrs M's daughter with lots of space for the hospital bed.
