Run fly with me
2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Hackney.
- Tuesday, 12th of November 2019
Lauren and I work together so we ran from our office having a natter along the way.
When we got to Ms G’s her lovely neighbour met us and we started with the easy task of moving a few items of furniture out of the bedroom and into the living room.
Then we had to get the mattress out of the first floor flat and down onto the pavement for collection so we did it the simplest way - we dropped it over the balcony, making sure there was no one underneath first.
Lastly, we dismantled the bed frame. Ms G’s neighbour saved the day and lent us a few tools to complete the job, and we delivered the frame to a neighbour downstairs.
We left the flat with plenty of space for a nice new hospital bed for Ms G when she comes home!
