A day in the garden: help Beatrice in Mwanza
Beatrice, 72, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 72 and I have lived in this house in Mwanza for 30 years. After the storm in June, 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 a recent fall.
The council has told me it will be eight weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Hope things get better soon, Beatrice. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.
Sending good thoughts. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Warri but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
Sending love. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Hobart.
