A day in the garden: help Yasmin in Jeddah

Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Yasmin's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

Jeddah
I'm 74 and I have lived in this house in Jeddah for 25 years. After the storm in December, 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 heart condition. 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: 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. Thank you so much.
