Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Ronaldo

Help Ronaldo regain independence: a simple ramp build.

Ronaldo has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Ronaldo 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 Ronaldo's family will cook lunch for the team. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

  • Wishing you peace, Luís. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.

    • you're not alone, Luís. Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Duisburg so I could bring a meal. All the best.

      • Stay strong, Luís. Wishing Ronaldo a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My neighbor in Heliopolis donated after I showed her your page.
