Yard rescue for Mohan, 76: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Mohan's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇮🇳 Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India684 views
I'm 76 and I have lived in this house in Thiruvananthapuram for 33 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 a heart condition.
The council has told me it will be eight 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
