Clear storm damage from Dinesh's garden in Leicester
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Dinesh's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 88 and I have lived in this house in Leicester for 25 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 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: 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Sent it to 23 people at work.
Good luck, Dinesh. Your post was clear and honest
hang in there. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.
hope things get better soon, Dinesh. Hope the doctors have good news
