You lot are incredible! I added the reaction to this week's video, Just wanted to share the difference you have made. Here is the link = www.gofundme.com/f/helping-jim-jean

[@bevbello1073]

Fantastic episode once again makes me have faith in humanity there are some fabulous people in this world,well done once again guys youve worked so hard. 🥹💯👏👏👏

[@SarHje]

I hope the money will be enough to not only include renovations of the house but also a cleaning firm to come on regular basis to clean the inside. Having builders really makes a lot of mess - inside and outside. I guess this was his wife assignment previously. Very few men at that age know anything about cleaning a house or just attend to what you see right in front of you. Corners and behind matters a lot. I hope Jim can be able to spend time with his wife as much as possible. That garden is very flat. Not so hard to keep clean. Why not get a mower robot to take care of the lawns?

[@michaelcrane441]

I'm no builder but imagine big bifolding doors on the extension so easy access to patio that would be amazing keep up the good work guys ❤

[@sharonknobbs7344]

As a 75 yr old I understand the transformation in Jim. When your brain sees all the work that needs doing and your body fails you, you become so overwhelmed that even the smallest task becomes monumental BUT when you have young healthy bodies systematically wade in and help, it is like a reboot to your brain and energy. Jim in this time has gone from a bewildered 77yr old to a energetic 50yr old. Thank you Ben, Phil and team giving Jim back the gift of self-esteem.

[@wandalevy470]

I have enjoyed the transformation in Jim and his property! I would add that is one Huge yard - don’t know how he ever maintained it. The vegetation is so different from here in the western US! You all have good hearts. Thanks for restoring confidence in the good in people!

[@GrumpysWorkshop4]

Just wanted to say ive just watched this video with tears in my eyes. My late wife was diagnosed with terminal cancer jan 2022 by August she was bed bound & we had a hospital bed in the living room. I slept downstairs on the sofa so i could be with her plus i was her main carer. By the end she didn't know who anyone was or what was happening. Watching the one you love suffer is the hardest thing in the world & time is precious. I lost my wife 23 December 2022 & that day i felt like my life ended. What you're trying to do by building an extension so they can be together is the most amazing thing anyone can do for them. I hope you achieve everything you want & more so the 2 of them can spend precious time together as thats the most important thing in life. You're a good man

You've shown you have a gentle soul with a heart filled with nothing but kindness. That money is a gift. Through these videos, we can see that every penny is not being wasted and know it's going towards helping you.

[@belc44]

Me, too! You are not only making a positive difference in Jim's garden and house, but, most importantly, in his life, in himself, he seems stronger, more full of life, he even knows how to handle the electric cutter better, and is carrying some weight standing straight. But I fear he might get depressed once this renovation is over and you guys will move on to another fantastic project. He will miss your company, serving you tea and snacks, helping out, watching everything that is going on. It's like a dream. It's like having kids at home and when the nest is empty, loneliness is all we have. I don't want that for him.

It would be so amazing if a landscaping company volunteered to do something with the gardens.

You know the more I watch this - and oh the irony because it’s social media that has brought about this fantastic result - I think of how many Jims there must be out there. As much as I applaud social media / YT for raising funds, what it brings home, more than anything is how isolated people like Jim & Jean are. The underfunding and erosion of local services has probably left them with very little support. We need somehow, some way to bring back a real life sense of community into our world. We need to build our community centres, sports facilities, libraries and youth centres again. By fostering a community spirit from young age, hopefully you create a sense of caring. In turn if our young felt cared for, encouraged and involved maybe they would pay it forward. How can they do this if they are glued to social media and worried about where the next like is coming from? Flawless Cleaning Services have no words for you living and demonstrating what is meaningful is this life - it’s a beautiful thing you’re doing. ❤

Already made my donation on "GoFund me"! After his episode it'll surely reach the 70.000-goal to build a new conservatory! Unbelievable what you've achieved with your great channel, dear Ben! Donating money is kind of easy if you can afford it - but digging out roots, building fences and cutting down a HUGE jungle with a lot of "surprises" to be found and carried out is a whole different dimension!!! So great to see Jim really kind of "blossomed" (don't know if that's the correct English word as my mother's tongue is German). Seeing him helping a little bit and continue to serve food for the courageous helpers really brings joy to my heart! I know he's very sick too. But this whole project seems to bring him emotional strength! And you "Flawless"-guys: YOU SIMPLY ROCK! Daddy as a Hercules statue carried by Ben was HILARIOUS!!! and Paul's answer to Ben's description of a root: "What a monster!" - Paul: "... and a root!" HILARIOUS! And PS to Jim: You are no stranger to me as well!!! Hope so much that you and your wife will very soon be able to sit in the new conservatory, or even on your terrace and enjoy a new garden to regrow!!! From the bottom of my heart do I wish you both strength! All the best to ALL OF YOU FROM VIENNA, AUSTRIA!!!

Like Jim, I was raised not to ask for help, and not to burden people. I have been put in a position, at times, of needing that help. And a friend convinced me. Some people get their joy like you do....helping people. For those people, whether it be helping with a meal, or things, or labor, or money.....to not let them help is to take away their joy. And I would not want to take away their joy. I should let them have that blessing that they get by blessing me. It has given me a lot of peace about receiving help.

I can not believe how big this yard is - it just keeps going & going! You are remarkable & I hope all 3 of you know how special you are.

I love this series of garden makeovers and am a very happy donor to the cause. You kindness is a blessing all round - to the lovely fruit and sandwiches Jim gives the boys to the team showing us how to make things. I love it all.

[@bobbishuemaker7973]

What an amazing job you're doing!! It's wonderful that so many people have donated to Jim and his wife's room so they can be together. Hope we get to meet Jean!

[@stuartcraigon2003]

Absolutely ADORE Jim. It kind of breaks my heart a little when Jim gets upset at how much people care. We do it because we love you ❤

[@GrannyGameRYo]

Jim, we’re not strangers, we’re family now! ❤

[@FlawlessCleaningServices]

Yes definitely

[@veegee3291]

Just heartwarming how you gents continue to change Jim & Jeanne's lives with all this hard work!!! Jim looks healthy and equally as important, HAPPY (re-energized,) and has positive tasks to look forward to! One can see the spunk in his step as he has all of you to interact with whether helping with simple project tasks, having a laugh thanks to Paul or simply making a new friend in the other member of Team Jim to interact with. Being able to contribute in any way has given meaning to life for him and it's all because of Flawless Cleaning UK!!! BLESS YOU, BLESS YOU, BLESS YOU all for giving Jim a new lease on life! You've realized quite the dream and rallied the troops which is a lovely thing to watch. A big thank you hug to ea of you for all of this hard work. All the best and excited to watch the next Jim & Jeanne episode! Hope you'll invite the previous project recipients to see the results @ Jim's. Til next week.

That stone wall down the back looks like its just blocks stacked on blocks!! This story really gives me a smile every time I see an update though. No matter what; every time you (with great physical effort over great investments of time and energy we really cannot appreciate on a speed up time lapse video!) dig through the brush and debris and find tons of other stuff to deal with ... you all just smile, take a second to catch your breath ... and then just get cracking again for days at a time. Really really inspiring watching it. And I love that good old Jim is determined to get stuck in and help out even if in some small way. Just wonderful to see. Throwing another 50 quid your way

[@debbysouthworth5606]

My hands and shoulders ache from watching you men do this work! I did this on my own house 22yrs ago. Ivy had choked the entire east side of my yard, killed 2 magnificent trees and ruined 108 feet of fence. It took an entire summer to remove it by myself and cost me hundreds in disposal fees. I was able to save one tree but not without the help of professionals. So having said that, what your team did is nothing short of amazing.

[@annaartie2784]

Jim is such a sweet man. You can really see how thankful he is for all of this help, because we all know he would have had it all done on his own when he was young. Older people(especially men) have such a hard time asking for help because it hurts their pride, but you can really see that he knew he truly NEEDS this help. He absolutely appreciates every thing that is being done for him and his wife. I'm so so glad you've been able to help them!❤❤

[@myraholmes8702]

This was so much to do. WIthout you, Jim's house would have been totally taken over by nature. I'm so glad for Jim. You all are heroes. God bless you all

[@amyv.simmons7565]

My late parents were in the helping professions in addition to being community advocates. My mother reminded me one her death bed to never forget that we are all here to help one another. Watching someone lift the burdens of others like you’ve done for Jim and Jim has reminded me of their lessons.

[@amyv.simmons7565]

*sorry -- Jim and Jean

Keep it going people !!!!! Let’s pass £70k to have enough for go fund fees and finish the job!

[@SC-cb2fy]

Jim reminds me so much of my dad, he was also called Jim, was the sweetest, kindest man to ever exist, also had terminal cancer and both of these men were born a month apart. It's been such a joy to watch Jim become so much happier spending time around Ben, his dad and Paul. Watching these videos each week gives me so much happiness to be reminded so much of my dad. The community spirit within this channel is fantastic and far beyond anything I could have ever imagined, well done Ben, we're all so proud of you and we're all supporting Jim and can't wait to see his reaction when your fantastic plans are complete. Thank you for allowing us to be a part in helping you make this dream come true!

[@theresakellogg4431]

I can't tell you how much I look forward to your videos every Friday. Watching you, your Dad, and all the others help so many people out of such difficult situations just warms my heart. I get so excited to see the progress made each week til the projects are finished. You all are making such a difference in so many people's lives....even ours who watch your videos each week. I wish Jim and Jean the very best. I cant wait to see everything finished for them so they can be together downstairs and they can enjoy their garden again. Many Blessings to you, your Dad, and your family, Ben. ❤✝️

[@LeannaRuthJensen]

You aren't just blessing Jim and Jean, but also all those neighbors who share a fence line who will not have to fight the vines coming on to their property now . I can't believe the job you have done so far. You have developed quite a dedicated hardworking crew. God bless you all.

[@elizabethwoodley4340]

Jim, your joy and your virtual hug is more than enough reward for the little I contributed to your new addition ❤❤❤

[@RC-kv9rj]

I wish we could all send Jim postcards from where we’re from with some positive/heart felt words that could be put in a photo album for him & Jean to treasure and see the love.

[@kodutuvi]

Great idea!!

[@tttt4029]

Be a big album 😁

[@karenhathaway9028]

[@MRVDOG]

This is an amazing idea, we need a PO Box we can all send things to as gifts for the people they're helping!

And it is even higher now. Ben you and your family/friends have given so much to so many. Bless you. Jim and Jean are a very deserving couple.

I love how Jim's personality is coming out more and more each week. He's feeling so much lighter.

[@debbiebertram]

I cannot tell you how much this makeover means to me. Every time I cry to see the joy on everyone’s faces. I can see the difference in everyone’s demeanor as each episode is shown. Jim’s energy has increased so much. He looks younger every episode. Can’t wait for the next one.

[@TheAstroflight]

It never ceases to amaze me how many people do not know how to use ridged decking. When the ridges are on top they do in fact hold water and encourage the growth and retention of algae, lichens and moss, which creates a slippery, dangerous and unsightly deck. That planking *was* *never* *intended* to be installed that way, *it* *is* *not* grip tread, it was never invented for that purpose. The ridges are in fact drip lines, their purpose is to be on the underside, to draw water away from collecting in, on and between the understructure, posts, bridging, joists etc. Initially the product was being used correctly then someone decided it looked cool upside down, and the rest is history.

[@Exeter-yf5tl]

That's a very good point you have made, you are knowledgeable about what you are saying. Yes, it can become slippery and difficult to clean when the ridges are facing up. 👍👍🏼👍🏾

I just love you guys! That yard must have been amazing in its hey day! Would love to see some photos. I enjoy seeing Jim out there with you, getting "stuck in." You're fixing homes and healing hearts. *Knight and Sons* are heroes in my book. The amount of stuff they've hauled away - I can't even imagine.❤

[@roxannedulin1673]

Jim you aren't a stranger anymore. The fund now is £63,000 and looks like more donations are coming in. That was really great the architectural firm donated their services. Unreal!! I truly have loved watching these episodes! 🤗🙏🥰

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="371">6:11</a> What a wonderful world we STILL live in! People really are innately good! Way to go Ben!! If you want to feel good about being alive, just watch Ben's videos. I love in California and my husband and I watch his videos to get a boost of kindness! I love Ben's motto.... kindness really does ripple like a stone thrown in a pond. Be kind and do good, always!

Can't say the same about governments.

That is exactly how I feel about it. Watching Ben’s videos makes me feel more positive, and then I want to go out and do something for my community. Not on this scale, of course, but every little bit helps. 😊 💛

You three guys are the absolute best! I can't believe how hard you all worked on Jim's yard. Clearing out all those roots was extremely hard work. I can't believe you removed them. Now, JIm won't have to worry about them growing back. Again, thank you for helping Jim and doing such wonderful work.

I know it’s a bit overwhelming Jim, but we all really want to do this for you! And when we do it as a big group, it’s easier for everyone!
