Rahul can't leave home - help build a ramp
Help Rahul regain independence: a simple ramp build.
🇮🇳 Nagpur, Maharashtra, India1,059 views
Rahul has used a wheelchair since 2022, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Rahul 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 six hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Rahul's family will cook lunch for the team.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thinking of you and your family. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 21 people at work. Take care.
Stay strong. Hope you get there. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Greetings from San Diego.
sending good thoughts. Hope the doctors have good news. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Nagpur!
Stay strong, Prakash. Wishing Rahul a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Wishing you the best, Prakash. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Manukau
