Clear storm damage from Qasim's garden in Bordeaux
Qasim, 83, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇫🇷 Bordeaux, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France244 views
I'm 83 and I have lived in this house in Bordeaux for 48 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 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.

Good luck. Your post was clear and honest. Please keep us posted. Blessings.
thinking of you and your family, Qasim. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Bangkok but we're thinking of you. All the best
Praying for you, Qasim. This could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Take care.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Manila.
