Yard rescue for Lovely, 87: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Lapu-Lapu: bring gloves and a rake.
🇵🇠6014, Lapu-Lapu, Cebu, Philippines646 views
I'm 87 and I have lived in this house in Lapu-Lapu for 27 years. After the storm in July, 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: 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 hope life is good to you.
