Strong arms make light work

2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Hackney.

On a dreary but dry Thursday evening we met up to help Mr & Mrs R to move some furniture around between bedroom & living room. We made light work of moving the side board across and were ready to take on the sofa, but it wouldn't fit next to the bed! The professionals are due to come in tomorrow to strip the medical bed and move it across to the other room, freeing up space for the sofa and other bits - something for another GG team to take on one day soon? Having done all we could do today, we made our goodbyes and went on our way, content in the knowledge Mrs R was very im pressed with the speed & easy GG moves furniture around!
