Yard rescue for Barasa, 87: fallen trees and overgrown beds

Garden rescue day in Mwanza: bring gloves and a rake.

Mwanza
I'm 87 and I have lived in this house in Mwanza for 36 years. After the storm in January, 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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do. Thanks for being kind about this.
