A day in the garden: help Maliha in Birmingham
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Maliha's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇬🇧 Birmingham, England, United Kingdom307 views
I'm 72 and I have lived in this house in Birmingham for 39 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 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

stay strong, Maliha. Wishing Maliha a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Birmingham.
Hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Paris.
keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like!
