She should have contacted social services, they would have helped giving her information and pointed her inn the right direction before it led to this. I personally think if at all possible , a council flat would be so much easier for Barbara. No repairs to think about or maintain, only decorating to do. I dread to think what the total cost will be, how wet the walls are. Every part of the building looks like it needs replaced.. Think trying to sell and find a small flat / house with a small garden she can maintain herself will be so much better for her as I feel even the garden will be too much for her :(

@GillMalouf 17 күн бұрын

Older people don't mean to neglect things...neighbours nowadays aren't like they were decades ago. No one cares when you get old and are unable to get jobs done. Someone recently asked me why I buy tools if I'm having tradesmen do jobs. The answer is that I try myself because I can't afford ridiculous prices...we then bury our head in the sand. Barbara shows her willingness to do work in the video....and having others work along side you motivates you..even though your limited to what you can do.

@Derpingtonshere 27 күн бұрын

Do people just not help their elderly neighbors anymore? Man when I was a kid I was going around mowing lawns for them, keeping their bushes trimmed, cleaning gutters, repairing damage "well what I could" because I am scared of heights. Neighbors should be ashamed of letting a neighbors house get this bad. Poor lady really needed help and I thank you for helping her. She obviously and desperately needed this.

When you have nobody to turn to for help, or no funds to bring experts in, you become overwhelmed. Its not like tge old days of community, and neighbours helping out the elderly, and this poor lady needs some kind of intervention from social services/council to continue to keep this problem under control. I cant even think of the damp/leaks and the cold/drafts she has to endure. Maybe the local churches could offer some regular help and visits?

Our local councils in the uk look after the housing they own and it has to be up to a certain standard. But for privately owned properties you must maintain them yourself, which sadly, Barbara hasn’t done for whatever reason. If she asked for help she could get rehoused but with the state her property is in they would probably move her and sell her place for redevelopment. The onus is on the owner to ask for help if they can’t maintain their property. Is it fair? Well most people are able to maintain their homes or have family to help. Also older folk often don’t have the advice about upkeep etc. Sadly there are plenty of older people in the same situation, they get too old to be bothered with upkeep and maintenance and need help. ❤

What an amazing first day! Watching professional tree guys is fascinating; that guy is a beast! You all are a blessing for Barbara. I've seen a lot of judgmental comments on here about the state of her house and all I have to say to that is I hope none of you ever find yourselves in this situation. As you get older, it gets harder and harder to keep up on things and it snowballs quickly. If you don't have anyone to help and don't have the funds to hire the right people to take care of things, you can end up with a tree on your house and ivy eating through the roof. Hats off to Ben, Paul, and the others for helping Barbara! 🤠❤

It's easier said than done. She won't get a lot of money and, where she is, she has no payment for housing. If she moves, the money she makes will need to be spent on rent and may not last very long. In addition, she'll be away from her old neighborhood where she's lived for so many years. Where she is, she has it all worked out forgetting her groceries and medications, getting transportation to doctor appointments, etc. She'll have to start all over. It's simply not as easy as it sounds.

They are true hero’s too. A crew came out to our place like the day after Christmas, on their vacation, to remove several huge maples that fell into our horse corral right where we feed them. Absolutely amazing that it didn’t kill our horses. These strong young men cut and heaved and toiled all day in the snow to clear it all up. It looked treacherous and strenuous. I’ll forever be grateful and impressed.
