Yard rescue for Elijah, 88: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Elijah's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇬🇧 London, England, United Kingdom56 views
I'm 88 and I have lived in this house in London for 39 years. After the storm in November, 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 arthritis.
The council has told me it will be eight 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Good luck, Elijah. Looking forward to the next update.
Sending good thoughts. Hope the doctors have good news
hang in there, Elijah. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Ibadan but we're thinking of you. Love from Ibadan.
