Build a wheelchair ramp for Marcel in Breda
Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Breda.
🇳🇱 North Brabant, Netherlands150 views
Marcel has used a wheelchair since 2023, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Marcel 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 twelve hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Marcel's family will cook lunch for the team.
Thanks for being kind about this.

So sorry you're going through this, Sara. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Bucaramanga so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Hyderabad
You're not alone. This could happen to any of us. I hope May is when things finally get easier. Blessings
