Ella can't leave home - help build a ramp
Help Ella regain independence: a simple ramp build.
🇬🇧 Dundee, Scotland, United Kingdom687 views
Ella has used a wheelchair since 2023, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Ella 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 Ella's family will cook lunch for the team.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Stay strong. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My neighbor in Bangkok donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Dundee.
Take care. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care
