Clear storm damage from René's garden in Toulon
René, 73, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 73 and I have lived in this house in Toulon for 40 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 arthritis.
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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

So sorry you're going through this, René. It takes guts to ask. Well done
Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together. Love from Philadelphia
Thinking of you, René. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from Bronx
