No good weed goes unfinished
2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Hackney.
- Sunday, 25th of November 2018
Here's what Mrs z of E8 had to say about the mission:
Mrs Z's daughter got in touch to say that her mum was really grateful for the help! She thanked GoodGym as well as Anna and Dharmesh, who did excellent work. Mrs Z is now very happy with her garden and enjoyed the friendly company, great job!
Two Goodgymmers set out on a cold and grey November morning to weed Mrs Z's front and back gardens. When we arrived, it looked like a pretty big job, and we doubted whether we could complete it in one mission. Nevertheless, we persisted. After an hour, we had cleared and scraped the back garden, producing five bags of weeds. In another half hour, we had cleared the front, adding five more bags. You never know what you can do until you try...
Mrs Z was pleased with the results and full of flattery, asking us if we were in uni. We thanked her for the compliment and encouraged her to give Goodgym a call again when the weeds start coming back.
