Yard rescue for Beth, 75: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Beth's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 75 and I have lived in this house in Hamilton for 43 years. After the storm in March, 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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thank you so much.

Thinking of you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Kumasi so I could bring a meal
Sending strength, Beth. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Rooting for you, Beth. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.
