Clear storm damage from Renata's garden in Barcelona
Garden rescue day in Barcelona: bring gloves and a rake.
🇪🇸 08083, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain1,085 views
I'm 79 and I have lived in this house in Barcelona for 21 years. After the storm in September, 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 recent fall.
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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

thinking of you and your family, Renata. Hope you get there. Thinking of Barcelona
Wishing you peace. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Sent it to 9 people at work!
Wishing you peace. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
hope it all works out, Renata. Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Oakland so I could bring a meal. Greetings from São Paulo.
keep going, Renata. Shared this with my family. I hope November is when things finally get easier.
Stay strong, Renata. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Birmingham.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Put this on a community board in Yogyakarta this morning. Greetings from Yogyakarta.
