A day in the garden: help Gregory in Manukau

Gregory, 75, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

Manukau
I'm 75 and I have lived in this house in Manukau for 47 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 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: 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
