Build a wheelchair ramp for Roberto in Salerno
Help Roberto regain independence: a simple ramp build.
🇮🇹 Salerno, Campania, Italy1,735 views
Roberto has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Roberto 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 building-code slope requirement, 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 Roberto's family will cook lunch for the team.

Thanks for sharing this, Aldo. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Hope it all works out, Aldo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from São Paulo.
