A day in the garden: help Goro in Shinjuku
Garden rescue day in Shinjuku: bring gloves and a rake.
🇯🇵 Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan274 views
I'm 91 and I have lived in this house in Shinjuku for 40 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 my hip replacement.
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: 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Best of luck. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My neighbor in Philadelphia donated after I showed her your page
