Yard rescue for Mattia, 82: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Rome: bring gloves and a rake.
🇮🇹 00117, Rome, Lazio, Italy1,137 views
I'm 82 and I have lived in this house in Rome for 50 years. After the storm in April, 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 twelve 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Keep going. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Best of luck, Mattia. Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care
Hope things get better soon. This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Jerusalem donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
