Help Aisha patch the roof before the autumn rains
Aisha, a single mother of three, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Birmingham.
🇬🇧 England, United Kingdom95 views
I'm a single mother of three living in Birmingham. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $4,900, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the shingles and underlay. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy who can help over one long weekend.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is sturdy shoes, gloves and a willingness to work. I'll provide lunch, water and lots of thanks.
The work will be done on the ground and roof with proper harnesses. If you can only help for a few hours, that's welcome too.
Thank you for reading my story.

Hope it all works out, Aisha. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Birmingham.
