The Mattress, The Door and The Wardrobe
3 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Portsmouth.
- Tuesday, 20th of August 2024
Here's what Mrs R of PO4 had to say about the mission:
Good morning Thank you very much for all the support provided. Mrs R was very grateful. Kind regards B
Jen, Dave and Jo visited Mrs R to help move some furniture outside her house for collection by the Council in the morning.
The bed, mattress and wardrobe were shuffled to the street with ease, but the three seater sofa put up a fight!
Even with Captain Detail herself present, and removing the living room door from it's hinges we were still unable to negotiate the Pompey House Hallways!
We grudgingly gave up on the sofa, although Mrs R is sure it came in through the front door fully assembled!
To make it up to Mrs R, we helped construct a table that was in storage upstairs and took two bags of clothes to the charity shop on her behalf.
