Riley can't leave home - help build a ramp
Help Riley regain independence: a simple ramp build.
🇦🇺 New South Wales, Australia231 views
Riley has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Riley 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 local accessibility standard of 1:12 slope, 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 Riley's family will cook lunch for the team.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

it takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Dwarka but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Sydney.
Hope things get better soon. Wishing Riley a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too
