Gardening question (I'll post it to garden thread also)

This is a 60yo hydrangea. Mr P wants to save it, as it was planted by his Nan. But it's had the outlet air from the split system blowing right at it for years and it's clearly struggling. It also used to have an apple tree for shade but that was removed years ago. He's wondering if he should/could move it without killing it. As you can see, he's already started 😂

I have no specific advice, but a previous landlord whippersnippered a hydrangea to about 2 inches tall and it recovered. Hardy beasts.
