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

I'm 76 and I have lived in this house in Pietermaritzburg for 39 years. After the storm in February, 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 my hip replacement.
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: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
