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

I'm 86 and I have lived in this house in Bristol for 32 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 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: 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

take care. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings.
You're not alone. Hope the doctors have good news. Greetings from Lethbridge.

Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Fort Worth donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Fort Worth
