Checking on Mr H.
1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in York.
- Tuesday, 31st of March 2020
I set off for my 4km run to arrive at Mr H's bang on 5pm. I understood that the council had recieved a call and were concerned for his welfare. When I arrived I rang the buzzer to the flat but there was no answer. Access was only possible if I was buzzed in so I couldn't get in to knock on the door. I buzzed another few times and also tried the other ground floor flat but no answer. I could look in through his window, the bedroom was empty and the door closed. After 20 minutes and another few buzzes I rang head office to report what had happened (or not happened).
Even though I couldn't fully complete my mission I certainly didn't think it was a waste of my time. I was able to report back to Amy at HQ and describe what I had seen. I hope all is well with Mr H.
