Yard rescue for Afia, 88: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Afia's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 88 and I have lived in this house in Accra for 37 years. After the storm in December, 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: 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 for reading my story.
