Volunteers wanted: Randall's yard after the storm
Randall, 89, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 89 and I have lived in this house in London for 30 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.
Thank you so much.

praying for you, Randall. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Ankara so I could bring a meal.
Praying for you, Randall. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 20 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Rooting for you. Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Hope it all works out, Randall. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out!
Hope things get better soon. Hope you get there. Thinking of London
