Cameron has used a wheelchair since 2023, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Cameron 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 accessibility guideline for gradient, which is why a person with building experience is important. We estimate six hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Cameron's family will cook lunch for the team.
Glad we found this place.

Best of luck, Natalia. Shared this with my family!
I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out
Good luck, Natalia. Wishing Cameron a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Love from Ankara.
