A day in the garden: help Priya in Gazipur

Priya, 79, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

Gazipur
I'm 79 and I have lived in this house in Gazipur 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 a heart condition. 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
