A day in the garden: help Naliaka in Entebbe

Garden rescue day in Entebbe: bring gloves and a rake.

Entebbe
I'm 87 and I have lived in this house in Entebbe for 31 years. After the storm in January, 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 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

  • Hope the doctors have good news. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Newcastle upon Tyne.

    • You're not alone, Naliaka. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

      • Praying for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Entebbe.

          So sorry you're going through this, Naliaka. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too

          • Sending good thoughts, Naliaka. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best.

            • Hang in there, Naliaka. Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

              • Sending love. Wishing Naliaka a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Thinking of Entebbe.
