Cian has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Cian 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 Cian's family will cook lunch for the team. Thank you so much.

  • Hope the doctors have good news. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care
