Volunteers wanted: Patrick's yard after the storm
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Patrick's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇯🇲 Mandeville, Manchester, Jamaica706 views
I'm 85 and I have lived in this house in Mandeville for 31 years. After the storm in July, 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 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

You're not alone, Patrick. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
