Clear storm damage from Oneil's garden in Mandeville
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Oneil's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇯🇲 Mandeville, Manchester, Jamaica905 views
I'm 89 and I have lived in this house in Mandeville for 22 years. After the storm in August, 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 six weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Glad we found this place.

Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double!
