Clear storm damage from Avery's garden in London

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

London
I'm 71 and I have lived in this house in London for 24 years. After the storm in August, 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: 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

                                  So sorry you're going through this, Avery. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Chattogram donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
