Yard rescue for Jack, 87: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Jack, 87, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we are looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 87 and I have lived in this house in Brandon for 35 years. After the storm in August, 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 a recent fall.
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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thank you so much.
