Clear storm damage from Waleed's garden in Giza
Waleed, 76, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 76 and I have lived in this house in Giza for 48 years. After the storm in April, 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 twelve 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Hang in there, Waleed. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

Thinking of you and your family, Waleed. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.

I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
