A day in the garden: help Brooklyn in Wellington
Garden rescue day in Wellington: bring gloves and a rake.
🇳🇿 6037, Wellington, Wellington, New Zealand830 views
I'm 87 and I have lived in this house in Wellington for 26 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 poor eyesight.
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: 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Keep going, Brooklyn. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Blessings
Best of luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Cebu City this morning. Love from Cebu City.
Hang in there, Brooklyn. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Tiruchirappalli donated after I showed her your page.
