Churchill Medical Centre has asked if we can set up a Social Visit for Miss A - a cheerful, chatty lady who is housebound as a result of multiple health conditions. She is lonely and isolated and would very much welcome a GoodGym volunteer to drop-by for a chat.

Miss A loves most sports and watches a lot of them on TV. She is interested in wildlife conservation, and particularly loves elephants. However, she can chat about anything really.

Miss A has to have a permanent link to an oxygen supply, although this does not interfere much with her mobility around the house or her ability to hold a good chat.

Not all homes have been risk assessed by the referrer or GoodGym and, although we will always give you as much information as we can before the mission, the home environment may still not be as expected, or may have changed. Remember that you do not have to enter, or remain in, the property if you do not feel comfortable. We recommend that you review your social visits training regularly as this contains advice on lone working and reporting concerns.

GoodGym has listed this mission for one or two GoodGymers. Two GoodGymers can go together, but the mission will still go ahead with one if only one person signs up by the deadline. If you are concerned about going solo, please do not feel under pressure to attend. Instead, please send us an email to missioncontrol@goodgym.org. If you let us know, we will not confirm it unless we have a second GoodGymer.

If you’d like to do this mission but cannot make any of the listed times or dates, please email missioncontrol@goodgym.org and we will do our best to organise this for you.

What to look out for

Age Restriction

GoodGym welcomes anyone aged 18 or over. If you are under 18 then you will be unable to participate in any GoodGym activity

Make sure you've read our general guidelines for safety when running and at a task.

This mission was from a referrer who states that they know Miss A of KT6's behaviour and environment enough to say that they do not pose a risk to you. No mission is ever completely safe; to make sure you are safe, please ensure you have read the information below, and that you are confident in your missions training. It is possible that Miss A of KT6’s situation may have changed or that the referrer has not identified any potential risk.
By signing up to this mission, you agree for GoodGym to share your email address with other GoodGymers signed up on the mission.
