Yard rescue for Shivam, 92: fallen trees and overgrown beds

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

I'm 92 and I have lived in this house in Greensboro for 37 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 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: 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

      Wishing Shivam a smooth procedure and a full recovery. After 26 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything
