Mass wisteria
2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Hackney.
- Monday, 31st of July 2017
Two of us assembled to tackle the garden for Mr E.
He's losing his sight and isn't able to maintain it anymore though likes getting outside for the fresh air. He wanted us to remove the weeds and the huge amount of wisteria growing over his fence from his neighbour's garden. 1hr and 10 mins later the job was done. Spic and span, the washing line was usable again and no trip hazards either.
"huge amount of wisteria"
David also did an amazing job on removing all the weeds from the front garden. Mr E was very grateful.
The next day, Mr E said: "I can't say thank you enough, so thought i'd ring and say it twice. I really am so happy, what lovely people to come and help me. Can you tell them I said that? I am very happy and very lucky to have help from them."
