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

I'm 72 and I have lived in this house in Columbus for 44 years. After the storm in May, 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 ten 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Take care, Nora. I hope things turn around soon. I hope September is when things finally get easier. All the best.
