Clear storm damage from Nalini's garden in Sandton
Nalini, 85, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 85 and I have lived in this house in Sandton for 49 years. After the storm in July, 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 heart condition.
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.
Glad we found this place.

You're not alone. Wishing Nalini a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care.
