It was blowing a kale out there!
1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Hackney.
- Friday, 22nd of May 2020
When signing up for the mission I recognised the name and the location having already collected shopping a few times for Ms N and was comfortable with many of the things she likes being picked up for her, from her preferred shop.
I went for a (very windy) run in Victoria park before walking to Sainsbury's in Dalston, which had the longest queue I'd seen yet but fortunately it moved quickly and before long I was in there hoovering up the items on the list, of which there were lots of healthy vegetables - great to see, and no doubt helping keep Ms N healthy at this time.
I dropped the shopping at hers, and we had a nice catch up as it had been a while since I'd done her shopping and pleasingly she was coping well and was especially grateful for the essential groceries.
