Clear storm damage from Otieno's garden in Zanzibar City
Garden rescue day in Zanzibar City: bring gloves and a rake.
🇹🇿 Zanzibar City, Zanzibar Urban/West, Tanzania952 views
I'm 89 and I have lived in this house in Zanzibar City for 31 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 eight 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.

Hope things get better soon, Otieno. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes
Sending good thoughts, Otieno. Wishing Otieno a smooth procedure and a full recovery. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
Best of luck, Otieno. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. After 29 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Boulogne-Billancourt.
