A day in the garden: help Mim in Dhaka
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Mim's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇧🇩 Dhaka, Dhaka, Bangladesh831 views
I'm 80 and I have lived in this house in Dhaka for 41 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 eight 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.
