A weekly ride to Newcastle upon Tyne General Hospital for Robert
A rota of drivers to Newcastle upon Tyne General Hospital would keep Robert on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Robert has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Newcastle upon Tyne General Hospital alone. After an eyesight problem, Robert 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 30 km each way.
Robert 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
