Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Charmaine

Help Charmaine regain independence: a simple ramp build.

Charmaine has used a wheelchair since 2020, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Charmaine 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 twelve hours of work. Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Charmaine's family will cook lunch for the team. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
