Yard rescue for Hiroshi, 90: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Hiroshi, 90, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we are looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 90 and I have lived in this house in Tokyo for 29 years. After the storm in March, 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 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.
