Yard rescue for Long, 90: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Burnaby: bring gloves and a rake.

I'm 90 and I have lived in this house in Burnaby for 42 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 a heart condition.
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: 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Good luck, Long. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Take care.
I hope things turn around soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Burnaby
