Residents who thanked him included one blind neighbour, who said: "I am a totally blind resident in Shaw and walk my guide dog every day.
"I am often stung by stinging nettles, scratched by brambles and hit in the face by branches and shrubs that are overhanging the footpaths.
“Fortunately, there is a resident who lives nearby called Keith.
“He is 89 years old and as well as caring for his wife, he is out every day cutting back foliage, clearing blocked drains, picking up litter and sweeping the subways to keep them free of slippery mud, litter and broken glass.
“I think this wonderful man deserves some recognition for all his hard work as a volunteer.”

That sounds totally not made up!
