Volunteers wanted: Declan's yard after the storm
Garden rescue day in Geelong: bring gloves and a rake.
🇦🇺 Geelong, Victoria, Australia593 views
I'm 89 and I have lived in this house in Geelong for 28 years. After the storm in August, 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 twelve weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

take care, Declan. Get well soon. Sent it to 3 people at work. Take care.
Sending strength, Declan. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings
Wishing Declan a smooth procedure and a full recovery. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Colorado Springs.
you're not alone, Declan. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Stockholm.
