Yard rescue for Thanaporn, 92: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Thanaporn's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 92 and I have lived in this house in Bang Khen for 36 years. After the storm in January, 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 six 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Thanks for sharing this, Thanaporn. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Bang Khen.
Hope it all works out, Thanaporn. Shared it with a few friends. All the best.
So sorry you're going through this. Hope this works out for you. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless.
