Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Céline
Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Hamilton.

Céline has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Céline 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 Céline's family will cook lunch for the team.
Thanks for being kind about this.

You're not alone. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Hamilton.
Wishing you peace, Anthony. This could happen to any of us
good luck. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
thanks for sharing this. Hope this works out for you. After 23 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Sending good thoughts. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Mumbai donated after I showed her your page.
