Fix a garden gate for Mrs C

Age UK East London has asked us to help Mrs C with trying to fix her garden gate which is sticking against the frame and stopping her from being able to use it. The gate provides the shortest route to her GP surgery so it would be very helpful for her to have this looked at. A recent GoodGym visit indicated that the top hinge could do with being resighted as it has moved slightly causing the gate to stick. The existing screws will need removing and some new heavy duty screws put in to replace them which should hopefully pull back the gate sufficiently to stop it sticking. It may need a little sanding or planing if the resighting of the hinge is not sufficient. You will need to buy three heavy duty screws for the task and Mrs C will be able to reimburse you so please keep the receipt.

GoodGym has listed this mission for one or two GoodGymers. Two GoodGymers can go together, but the mission will still go ahead with one if only one person signs up by the deadline. If you are concerned about going solo, please do not feel under pressure to attend. Instead, please send us an email to missioncontrol@goodgym.org. If you let us know, we will not confirm it unless we have a second GoodGymer.

If you’d like to do this mission but cannot make any of the listed times or dates, please email missioncontrol@goodgym.org and we will do our best to organise this for you.
