A day in the garden: help Joya in Dhaka
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Joya's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇧🇩 Dhaka, Dhaka, Bangladesh127 views
I'm 71 and I have lived in this house in Dhaka for 40 years. After the storm in September, 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 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.
