Yard rescue for Swati, 74: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Swati's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 74 and I have lived in this house in Kolkata for 40 years. After the storm in April, 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 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.
Thank you so much.
