Yard rescue for Zubby, 83: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Zubby's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 83 and I have lived in this house in Lagos for 49 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 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: 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Best of luck, Zubby. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Lagos.
thinking of you, Zubby. This could happen to any of us.
hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless
