Hi @panache68, welcome to the Scope community 😊
I'm sorry to hear about the struggles you are having with your home. I understand that… pang of guilt? Or negative feeling when you have been struggling mentally or physically so have fallen behind on housework.
Have you reached out to your local authority at all? If you request it, they can assess your home and your care needs and put in place support that can help you or adapt your home.
I'm going to move this over to our home and independent living section, as I'm sure you may have more questions, and others may have more answers or advice.

Speak to your local Authority because sometimes they have a scheme for gardening for those that are unable to do their own. It's usually just very basic things like cutting the grass etc etc.
