Hello! 👋🏼🙂
I'm looking for some garden furniture to go on the back patio of our little bungalow here in Fletton.
It's a disability property - my partner is in a wheelchair (after a bad car crash 18 months ago) and I have since become his full-time carer.
The bungalow was completely unfurnished when we moved in, including a very empty garden!
🏡
We're gradually trying to make it more homely, and now that the better weather seems to be coming (! 👀) it would be really nice to sit outside sometimes.
But, we have zero seating or tables right now, and unfortunately zero budget too! 😔
My partner's mobility issues mean that it's generally easier for him to transfer over to a sofa, rather than a chair with arms.
That's why I've been hoping to find some kind of garden sofa - rattan or similar - so he can keep his poorly legs elevated as much as possible.
My hope is to create a comfy area outside to help him enjoy some much-needed fresh air again, as he has been in and out of hospital wards ever since his accident.
🏥
Getting him back to The Outside would be a real game-changer for his long-term recovery, both physically and mentally.
🌿☀️✨
Obviously the picture above is just a stock photo of the perfect corner-sofa set, and we're not expecting to find exactly that! 😝
It was just to give a visual idea really, and to see if anyone might have anything similar lurking in a dark forgotten corner of their garden or patio!?...
But we'd be super happy to hear from Anyone with ANY furniture at this point, honestly; we just need something other than a wheelchair to sit on!
So please do drop us a line if you think you have anything that might be of interest?
We look forward to hearing from you, and thanks so much for reading this.
Happy Spring!

P.s. Freegle has been a great discovery for us since this recent house move, and we've really enjoyed donating things to other people, as much as finding Freegled treasures for ourselves too.
