Clear storm damage from Nancy's garden in Entebbe

Garden rescue day in Entebbe: bring gloves and a rake.

Entebbe
I'm 75 and I have lived in this house in Entebbe for 21 years. After the storm in October, 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 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
