Mega has used a wheelchair since 2022, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Mega 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 eight hours of work. Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Mega's family will cook lunch for the team. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

    Praying for you, Dwi. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Kathmandu this morning. Take care.

      Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Entebbe but we're thinking of you. All the best.
