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

I'm 79 and I have lived in this house in Bornova for 29 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 poor eyesight.
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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

It takes guts to ask. Well done. My husband and I read this together. Love from Oakland
Good luck. Get well soon. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best
