WEED be mad not to LEAF this mission unfinished!
3 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Southwark.
- Sunday, 7th of April 2019
Here's what Ms D of SE5 had to say about the mission:
The person who referred this task to us got in touch to say "Thanks to you and your marvellous team of runners who went to Dees on Sunday. She is over the moon with the work they did. Please pass on her thanks to all concerned." - Amazing work ladies!
We arrived to help Ms D out in the garden with a bit of chopping back and weeding to make it tidier. She lives in rented property and was feeling quite anxious about her living situation so having the garden tidied was clearly a huge relief to her and she was quite emotional. Ms D’s dog ‘Buddy’ kept us company some of the time and loved exploring his new tidy garden! I think it’s fair to say we made a great start on what could be a fab continuing project : ) A couple of hours flew by and we hope she enjoys her new space.
