Yard rescue for Daniel, 92: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Daniel's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇨🇴 Bucaramanga, Santander, Colombia484 views
I'm 92 and I have lived in this house in Bucaramanga for 23 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 poor eyesight.
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: 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.

Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 26 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Cape Town.
