Build a wheelchair ramp for Saima in Faisalabad
Help Saima regain independence: a simple ramp build.
๐ต๐ฐ Punjab, Pakistan497 views
Saima has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Saima 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 Saima's family will cook lunch for the team.
Glad we found this place.

Wishing you the best. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
Sending love, Ayesha. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up
Praying for you, Ayesha. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Thinking of Faisalabad
