A day in the garden: help Gabriel in Lille
Garden rescue day in Lille: bring gloves and a rake.
🇫🇷 Lille, Hauts-de-France, France477 views
I'm 88 and I have lived in this house in Lille for 40 years. After the storm in January, 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 heart condition.
The council has told me it will be ten weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
