Volunteers wanted: Derek's yard after the storm

Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Derek's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 72 and I have lived in this house in San Francisco for 24 years. After the storm in April, 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 a heart condition. 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: 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
