Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Shuvo
Shuvo uses a wheelchair and can't leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.

Shuvo has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Shuvo 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 ten hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Shuvo's family will cook lunch for the team.
Thank you so much.

Hope it all works out, Bappy. Looking forward to the next update. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best
