Yard rescue for Patrick, 76: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Patrick's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 76 and I have lived in this house in Lyon for 23 years. After the storm in August, 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: 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
