A day in the garden: help Leila in Mecca
Leila, 82, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇸🇦 Mecca, Makkah, Saudi Arabia584 views
I'm 82 and I have lived in this house in Mecca for 20 years. After the storm in February, 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 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.

it takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Mecca.
