Volunteers wanted: Paolo's yard after the storm

Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Paolo's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

Brescia
I'm 91 and I have lived in this house in Brescia for 26 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 a heart condition. 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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do. Thank you for reading my story.
