Volunteers wanted: Nadia's yard after the storm
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Nadia's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇿🇦 George, Western Cape, South Africa788 views
I'm 86 and I have lived in this house in George for 38 years. After the storm in June, 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 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
