Clear storm damage from Dwayne's garden in Kingston

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

Kingston
I'm 88 and I have lived in this house in Kingston for 33 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 poor eyesight. The council has told me it will be six weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner. Help needed: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do. Thanks for being kind about this.
