Nuria has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Nuria 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 local accessibility standard of 1:12 slope, 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 Nuria's family will cook lunch for the team. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

      Wishing you peace, Ángel. This could happen to any of us.

      • Hope it all works out. It takes guts to ask. Well done!

        • Hang in there, Ángel. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Mumbai but we're thinking of you.

          • Hope this works out for you. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Lagos.
