Build a wheelchair ramp for Nina in Moscow
Nina uses a wheelchair and can't leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.
🇷🇺 Moscow, Russia306 views
Nina has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Nina 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 Nina's family will cook lunch for the team.
Thank you for reading my story.

Thinking of you, Marina. Hope you get there. Love from Dhaka.
Thinking of you and your family, Marina. Hope the doctors have good news. Wish I lived closer to Leeds so I could bring a meal
Stay strong. Your post was clear and honest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Sherbrooke.
Wishing Nina a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Sent it to 26 people at work. Greetings from Dublin.
Thinking of you and your family, Marina. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Atlanta.
