A plumber is currently making headlines for his noble initiative of giving the elderly and vulnerable free plumbing repairs.
We all know that the elderly and people with disabilities are the ones who need help the most, but everyone in a community may benefit from a little help from friends and neighbors.
Because they fear being perceived as a burden, these people hardly ever ask for assistance, even when they need it.
James, a Liverpool native, insists that the customer will get “free plumbing for life.”
We have an obligation to look out for one another as a species.
James says his activities are “a community effort” and refuses to take full credit, even though he is well-known online for his altruistic deed.
“It just makes me feel good on the inside,” James says. Some may wonder what the plumber stands to gain from all of his selfless deeds.
It makes me feel human, humble, and happy inside. I want this service to be accessible across the country. “I will never give up the fight,” he said.
James hopes to expand his services outside Burnley, and the awareness the viral receipt generates could be very helpful.
I have other plumbers that are willing to help. My goal is to have Depher national in every city and village,” James said.
Your story of James Anderson, the generous plumber who mended an elderly woman’s boiler for free, was quite entertaining to read.
As a 63-year-old plumber who is semi-retired, I either offered a significant discount or didn’t charge if the job took ten minutes or less.
Because he had a sick dad, my employer recognized how much our clients cherished it and never gave me any trouble. James, you are setting a good example for the rest of us plumbers. Well done.
The elderly truly appreciate the services we provide, despite the fact that our work is extremely difficult and often dangerous. — Bruce Drury
