This evening I headed out to help a vulnerable older person by cutting back an overgrown hedge and tree that had begun to obstruct access to their property.

I was welcomed by Ms B’s carer, who showed me the areas that needed attention before I got to work. Armed with shears, loppers and plenty of enthusiasm, I carefully cut back the hedge and trimmed the overhanging tree branches, creating a much clearer and safer route to the property.

The transformation was immediate, with the entrance looking tidier, brighter and much more accessible.
