A ramp for Pablo: volunteers and tools needed
Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Seville.
🇪🇸 Seville, Andalusia, Spain553 views
Pablo has used a wheelchair since 2023, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Pablo 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 eight hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Pablo's family will cook lunch for the team.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Rooting for you, Inés. Hope this works out for you. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too
Hope it all works out. Hope the doctors have good news. God bless.
Thanks for sharing this. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Berlin.
good luck. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Mumbai so I could bring a meal. Love from Caruaru.
You're not alone, Inés. Looking forward to the next update. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care
Wishing Pablo a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Stay strong, Inés. Wishing Pablo a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it
Thanks for sharing this, Inés. Get well soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.
