The Stairlift Ascends – Tweets from a Covid Cocoon by Helen O’Rahilly is a wonderful little book filled with honest, heart-warming and witty tales of Helen’s time cocooning with her ninety-year-old aunt during lockdown in Dublin. Helen’s #stairliftascends tweets have taken Twitter by storm and captured the hearts of many.
The stairlift was installed by BM Stairlifts over ten years ago and is now probably the most famous stairlift in Ireland
