Clear storm damage from Emmanuel's garden in San Fernando
Emmanuel, 81, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 81 and I have lived in this house in San Fernando for 43 years. After the storm in June, 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 six 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

take care, Emmanuel. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
sending love, Emmanuel. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together
Sending love. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Hamilton but we're thinking of you. Take care.
