A day in the garden: help Barbara in Aberdeen
Garden rescue day in Aberdeen: bring gloves and a rake.
🇬🇧 Aberdeen, Scotland, United Kingdom180 views
I'm 78 and I have lived in this house in Aberdeen for 41 years. After the storm in November, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of arthritis.
The council has told me it will be six weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Wishing you the best, Barbara. Gave what I could, wish it was more!
Sending strength, Barbara. Your post was clear and honest. Love from Dar es Salaam!
Hope the doctors have good news. Wish I lived closer to Detroit so I could bring a meal. Take care
Wishing you peace, Barbara. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Houston
Take care, Barbara. I hope things turn around soon. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
