Yard rescue for Hatem, 80: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Hatem's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 80 and I have lived in this house in Mecca for 43 years. After the storm in June, 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 twelve 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Rooting for you. Looking forward to the next update. After 18 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Lagos.
Sending good thoughts, Hatem. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.
Sending love, Hatem. Get well soon. Don't give up.
