Where would you be if you were a screwdriver?

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

Mr T needed our help this morning to clear his front room for space for his hospital bed so he can come home. His good friend Mr P was at the flat to let us in and after a quick hand from Dom using What3words I managed to find the meeting spot and we got started with the task.

A very detailed map of the rooms and what needed to move was very helpful and we could get straight to task making space in the bedroom for some of the living room furniture.

Next we tried getting away with moving the sofa without removing the feet, but it was not to be and we started the hunt for a screwdriver, luckily Mr P could pop down to his flat to pick up his tool set. With the feet off we quickly had the sofa standing in the bedroom and a nice clear space for the hospital bed to go.

A quick check from Dom of the instructions and a slight shuffle of the bed to make sure the wardrobe was accessible and we were done. Mr P was very grateful for our help and we hope Mr T is pleased too.
