Yard rescue for Nicolas, 84: fallen trees and overgrown beds

Nicolas, 84, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

Poitiers
I'm 84 and I have lived in this house in Poitiers for 24 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 poor eyesight. The council has told me it will be six 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.
