Help Jackson regain independence: a simple ramp build.

Jackson has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Jackson can only go outside when two neighbors are available to lift the chair. The materials (treated timber, screws and non-slip surface) have been donated by a local lumberyard. We need a carpenter or two to measure, cut and build, plus a helper or two. The ramp has to meet the local accessibility standard of 1:12 slope, which is why a person with building experience is important. We estimate ten hours of work. Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Jackson's family will cook lunch for the team. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    Take care, Liliana. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless

    • So sorry you're going through this, Liliana. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.

      • Rooting for you, Liliana. I hope things turn around soon. Take care.
