A day in the garden: help Ruby in Parramatta
Garden rescue day in Parramatta: bring gloves and a rake.
🇦🇺 Parramatta, New South Wales, Australia1,336 views
I'm 91 and I have lived in this house in Parramatta for 28 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 my hip replacement.
The council has told me it will be twelve 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Shared it with a few friends. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Noida
Hope it all works out, Ruby. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 8 people at work
Hang in there, Ruby. Shared it with a few friends. All the best
Good luck, Ruby. Hope the doctors have good news. Put this on a community board in Rotterdam this morning. All the best
