A day in the garden: help Vivian in Kano

Vivian, 86, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

Kano
I'm 86 and I have lived in this house in Kano for 36 years. After the storm in May, 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: 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
