Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Leonardo in London
The roof at Leonardo's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

I'm a school janitor living in London. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,850, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the roofing sheets and nails. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for 4-6 people 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 to be comfortable with heights or willing to help from the ground. 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.
Glad we found this place.

rooting for you. Shared it with a few friends. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Take care.
Thanks for sharing this, Leonardo. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Wish I lived closer to Mumbai so I could bring a meal. Take care.
thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Greetings from Bangkok.
