A day in the garden: help Ikenna in Epe

Ikenna, 89, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

Epe
I'm 89 and I have lived in this house in Epe for 40 years. After the storm in July, 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 arthritis. The council has told me it will be twelve 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. Thank you for reading my story.
