A weekly ride to Glasgow General Hospital for Beth
Beth needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Beth has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to Glasgow General Hospital alone. After a foot amputation, Beth 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 4 hours, including the trip there and back; most volunteers take one regular day. The journey is about 23 km each way.
Beth 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Stay strong, Claire. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to São Paulo so I could bring a meal.
Good luck, Claire. Get well soon. Sent it to 5 people at work. All the best.

Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 21 people at work.
Praying for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Abuja so I could bring a meal.
Sending good thoughts, Claire. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Good luck. Hope the doctors have good news. I hope October is when things finally get easier
sending strength. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Glasgow.
Keep going, Claire. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Colorado Springs this morning. Love from Colorado Springs.
