Yard rescue for Aditi, 79: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Southampton: bring gloves and a rake.
🇬🇧 Southampton, England, United Kingdom143 views
I'm 79 and I have lived in this house in Southampton for 37 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 ten 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.
Glad we found this place.

Sending strength, Aditi. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
hang in there, Aditi. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Nagpur!
Good luck, Aditi. Shared it with a few friends.
