Clear storm damage from Thabo's garden in East London
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Thabo's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 84 and I have lived in this house in East London for 46 years. After the storm in January, 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 my hip replacement.
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.
