Here's what Mr W of KT3 had to say about the mission:

Feedback from referrer: "Many thanks for the help from your volunteers with swapping the mattresses for our clients."

It felt like a double feel good factor effect! Not only a joyful catch up between old GoodGym Kingston friends Jane and Caroline but like two keen spring chickens, we were able to help Mr and Mrs V's mattress swap in no time at all and get a quick work out at same time.

Basically their mattress was getting a bit saggy so we swapped it with a newer one from their spare room - luckily on same floor as they were heavy doubles - so we mastered the art of the mattress shimmy!

Mr and Mrs were so sweet and offered us a mini bottle of Shiraz each at the end. We politely declined but thanked them for such kindness.
