A day in the garden: help Shilpa in Kota

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

Kota
I'm 76 and I have lived in this house in Kota for 46 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 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. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

    wishing Shilpa a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.

      Stay strong, Shilpa. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope May is when things finally get easier. God bless.

            This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Manchester so I could bring a meal. Greetings from San Cristóbal de las Casas
