A day in the garden: help Russell in Montgomery
Russell, 72, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 72 and I have lived in this house in Montgomery for 49 years. After the storm in February, 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 recent fall.
The council has told me it will be six 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Hope things get better soon, Russell. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
So sorry you're going through this, Russell. Hope the doctors have good news. My neighbor in Gliwice donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
