Volunteers wanted: Olof's yard after the storm
Olof, 76, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇸🇪 Stockholm, Stockholm, Sweden458 views
I'm 76 and I have lived in this house in Stockholm 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 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: 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 so much.

Hope it all works out. Hope the doctors have good news. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
So sorry you're going through this. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.

I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Jakarta Selatan so I could bring a meal. Love from Southampton.
