Cleaning out the garden of 2 elderly brothers

By Eva Mabayoje | General Manager

On a bright sunny afternoon a team of Present went to a home of 2 elderly brothers. Both brothers are healthy enough to be living at their own home, but are both in a physical condition that cleaning is not an option any more. Let alone, cleaning out the backyard that was completely overgrown as to a point that you could letteraly not enter without a hedge clipper in your hands!

 

We spend hours of just cutting and cutting and cutting... The result was that you could actually see the other side of the garden again!

 

To us, this is not finished. We would love to come back a make this garden a place of peace for the brothers to enjoy the sunshine. Maybe put in some lovely flowers so that butterflies can brighten up their days!

 

It has definitely been another rewarding afternoon. But this will be cotinued....
