Mission

No (I)Padding Around Here

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

  • Matthew
  • Heather Wilshaw-Jones
 
Saturday, 6th of July 2019

On a sunny Saturday afternoon Heather and Matthew went to help the most amazing woman with her I-pad. She has had a tough time having recently lost her husband and been seriously ill herself. The internet and technology can be challenging at the best of times and for someone who is over ninety, it can be totally overwhelming. So, it was lovely to be able to help B get her I-pad set up so that she could use what she wanted and to chat with her as she has nobody to talk to. These missions are really humbling and it was a privilege to spend some time with B and to help her out.
