I'm a smallish female and have fairly arthritic wrists and fingers

. Can anyone recommend a light hedgetrimmer which would be helpful in my garden, which is full of hedges and large clipped shrubs!!

catalpa,
I would suggest a 'man who can'?

Umm, yes. I've got one of those, but it costs and I'd enjoy doing more of the work myself in any event. It's really hard work using shears so the time has come to invest in something to help!!

catapla,
Honestly, by the time you have bought a machine to do the work you require, your bloke could do the job?
If he's charging more than £7/hr. You're being stuffed - unless in London where you will be stuffered anyway - sorry.
