A day in the garden: help Lanre in Onitsha
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Lanre's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 71 and I have lived in this house in Onitsha for 22 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 poor eyesight.
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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Sending love. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We're a small family in Saket but we're thinking of you.
sending good thoughts. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Hope things get better soon, Lanre. Hope you get there. All the best
Thinking of you and your family. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from New Delhi.
