Volunteers wanted: Dipu's yard after the storm
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Dipu's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 91 and I have lived in this house in Cox's Bazar for 40 years. After the storm in July, 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 recent fall.
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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
