Thorns & Roses - Welcome to the Jungle
2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Southwark.
- Saturday, 10th of August 2019
Carol and I arrived to Ms M waiting for us. She took us through tot he the garden where she explained that in 4 months her garden had turned into a jungle.
She had tools at the ready for us so we got to work pruning very sharp rose bushes (with some minor injuries) and pulling weeds. We managed to fill 5 bags.
Ms M spent a lot of the time out in the garden with us chatting which was lovely.
When we were done she said how it will be so lovely to look through her window and see her garden again as well as now being able to walk round and enjoy her wonderful roses. 🌹🌹
She was so happy that we both got a lovely card thanking us for our hard work.
Great working with you Carol
