Camden

Mission

Shopping Mask-it

1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Camden.

Mrs J lives in an area of London I’ve frequented many times with GoodGym Camden. So unlike recent missions where I’ve set off early in the expectation that I’ll get lost, this was a nice straight shot on my bicycle from my home, all downhill, and I expect it would be just as easy on the way back.

Mrs J and I had a quick chat through the closed door while I picked up her shopping list from the doorstep - so organised! She had even gone online to check prices and available quantities and weights beforehand. My kind of person.

Mrs J has two daughters, and sounded immensely proud of them - one is a surgeon battling away with our current health crisis and the other has opted to volunteer alongside her. They would otherwise be helping Mrs J out while she is in isolation, and she was so lovely and thankful that we at Goodgym could offer support while they are away doing such vital work.

Stay well everyone!
