Can we dig it? Yes we can!
3 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Liverpool.
- Saturday, 23rd of June 2018
Here's what Mr J of L10 had to say about the mission:
The volunteers did an absolutely brilliant job. Half of the front garden was rock hard and I didn't have the strength to turn it over. They not only turned it over but also weeded. I'm so pleased with the work they've done and just over the moon.
On a beautifully sunny Saturday, Emma, Pauline and Matthew from Good Gym Liverpool attended an elderly couples house to weed and turn over part of the front garden, which the owners simply could no longer physically do. This was the first mission the Liverpool branch of Good Gym has done. The state of the front garden had been getting the owners down and so he had called Good Gym and we were able to answer his call. The total job took about an hour and a half and we are sure you will agree that it was time well spent when you see what we achieved in such a short space of time. And here is the finished piece of garden in all its glory. The plan is to put some grass seed down and create the perfect lawn. It was so nice to be able to help a couple who have given so much to their own community and have raised thousands of pounds for charity. We cannot wait for the next mission, whenever and wherever that may be.
