Could you drive Naveen to Durgapur General Hospital on Sunday? A rota of 5 drivers is forming.

Naveen has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Durgapur General Hospital alone. After a minor stroke, Naveen can no longer drive. Taxis cost more than the family can pay three times a week. We're building a rota of volunteer drivers. Each session is 3 hours, including the trip there and back; most volunteers take one regular day. The journey is about 12 km each way. Naveen is cheerful company. You'd need a car in good condition and a clean driving record. We'll cover your fuel costs, and the family will send you home with homemade food. Please say which day works for you in the comments. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
