Yard rescue for Florence, 74: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Zanzibar City: bring gloves and a rake.
🇹🇿 Zanzibar City, Zanzibar Urban/West, Tanzania1,163 views
I'm 74 and I have lived in this house in Zanzibar City for 36 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 my hip replacement.
The council has told me it will be twelve 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.
I hope life is good to you.

So sorry you're going through this, Florence. Hope the doctors have good news. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best!
Hang in there. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. After 7 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care!
