Yard rescue for Mavis, 72: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Accra: bring gloves and a rake.
🇬🇭 GA-499-4286, Accra, Greater Accra, Ghana670 views
I'm 72 and I have lived in this house in Accra 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 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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thanks for being kind about this.

hang in there. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Luxor.
Thinking of you, Mavis. Wishing Mavis a smooth procedure and a full recovery. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Los Angeles.
