Yard rescue for Rotimi, 81: fallen trees and overgrown beds

Garden rescue day in Bonny: bring gloves and a rake.

Bonny
I'm 81 and I have lived in this house in Bonny for 29 years. After the storm in July, 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 ten 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. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
