Clear storm damage from Noel's garden in Lapu-Lapu
Noel, 75, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we are looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 75 and I have lived in this house in Lapu-Lapu for 48 years. After the storm in January, 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 twelve 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Shared this with my family. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Dhaka.
thinking of you and your family, Noel. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Sent it to 3 people at work
