Help Andrea patch the roof before the autumn rains
Could you spare three weekday mornings to help repair a leaking roof in Regensburg?

I'm a widowed grandmother living in Regensburg. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,950, 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 three or four volunteers who can help over three weekday mornings.
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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Wishing you peace, Andrea. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope March is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Bristol.
it takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 28 people at work. Take care
Sending good thoughts, Andrea. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Regensburg.
