A day in the garden: help Esther in Mombasa
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Esther's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇰🇪 Mombasa, Mombasa, Kenya229 views
I'm 86 and I have lived in this house in Mombasa for 43 years. After the storm in August, 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: 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My neighbor in Jakarta donated after I showed her your page.
