Yard rescue for Otávio, 78: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Otávio's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 78 and I have lived in this house in Santos for 38 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 poor eyesight.
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: 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.

Sending strength. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Lahore
