Volunteers wanted: Nnamdi's yard after the storm
Nnamdi, 88, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 88 and I have lived in this house in Bonny for 39 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 heart condition.
The council has told me it will be ten 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.

Thinking of you. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Love from Dundee.
Wishing you the best, Nnamdi. It takes guts to ask. Well done. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
Hope it all works out, Nnamdi. Wishing Nnamdi a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My neighbor in Gaziantep donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Bonny.
Praying for you, Nnamdi. Hope you get there. Greetings from Bristol
So sorry you're going through this, Nnamdi. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Love from Toulouse.
