Volunteers wanted: Anthony's yard after the storm
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Anthony's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇫🇷 Strasbourg, Grand Est, France477 views
I'm 84 and I have lived in this house in Strasbourg for 49 years. After the storm in December, 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 arthritis.
The council has told me it will be six weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hope it all works out, Anthony. Your post was clear and honest. After 25 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Thinking of you and your family. Your post was clear and honest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best
take care. Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Coatzacoalcos so I could bring a meal.
Stay strong. This could happen to any of us. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Berlin.
Hang in there, Anthony. Your post was clear and honest
