Yard rescue for Claire, 81: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Manchester: bring gloves and a rake.
🇬🇧 M19 3SD, Manchester, England, United Kingdom301 views
I'm 81 and I have lived in this house in Manchester for 28 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 ten weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
