Yard rescue for Hugo, 72: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Alicante: bring gloves and a rake.
🇪🇸 03014, Alicante, Valencian Community, Spain803 views
I'm 72 and I have lived in this house in Alicante for 43 years. After the storm in December, 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: 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.
Thank you so much.
