A day in the garden: help Young-ja in Seoul

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

Seoul
I'm 84 and I have lived in this house in Seoul for 22 years. After the storm in February, 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 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
