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

I'm 76 and I have lived in this house in Durban for 46 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 a recent fall.
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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Good luck, Wayne. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
sending good thoughts, Wayne. Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together.
