Clear storm damage from Mateo's garden in Rosario

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

Rosario
I'm 71 and I have lived in this house in Rosario for 46 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 ten 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.
