A day in the garden: help Supriya in Howrah
Garden rescue day in Howrah: bring gloves and a rake.
🇮🇳 Howrah, West Bengal, India1,056 views
I'm 75 and I have lived in this house in Howrah for 30 years. After the storm in April, 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: 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.

Thinking of you, Supriya. Hope you get there.
Looking forward to the next update. Love from Leeds.
You're not alone. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Jakarta but we're thinking of you.
Hope things get better soon, Supriya. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
Good luck, Supriya. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.
