A day in the garden: help Vinícius in São Paulo
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Vinícius's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 75 and I have lived in this house in São Paulo for 30 years. After the storm in March, 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 ten 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.
