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

I'm 71 and I have lived in this house in Pretoria for 37 years. After the storm in May, 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 arthritis.
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: 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

rooting for you, Naledi. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
