Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by Dom Tooze (he/him)
Today Jonny and I used our exercise to go and help Ms F, who is shielding at home.
We'd been told of the situation by the team in the GGcave - Ms F was keen to have her summer clothes to wear when temperatures rise, but she is unable to carry the trunk from the basement to her flat. On arrival, we were introduced to the trunk (the size of a very large trunk), a lift that was too small for it to fit in, and the 7th floor flat we'd take it to.
While it was big, the weight was manageable and the staircase wide. Before long we had the case up, then went all the way down and all the way up again to fetch some fans she was also keen on.
As we put the fans together, we enjoyed a nice chat with Ms F - the chat took the task from a half hour one to an hour, but Jonny and I were quite content with that. Ms F has been finding a lot of things challenging, and help from organisations including GoodGym seems to have kept her positive even when things could be overwhelming.
After talking about our lives, pets past and present, and Ms F's plans, Jonny and I said our goodbyes and headed off. Mission accomplished!
