Arianna, 88, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 88 and I have lived in this house in London for 39 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 my hip replacement. The council has told me it will be eight 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • Rooting for you, Arianna. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it

    • Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of London.

      • Wishing you the best, Arianna. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings.

        • So sorry you're going through this. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings
