Help Autumn patch the roof before winter
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Coventry?
🇬🇧 England, United Kingdom635 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Coventry. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,600, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the corrugated iron sheets and timber. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for a small crew who can help over a weekend.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is work boots and a hat. 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Sending good thoughts, Autumn. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.
take care, Autumn. Shared it with a few friends.
Thinking of you and your family. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope January is when things finally get easier. God bless.
