A weekly ride to the Oakland Dialysis Unit for Katherine
Could you drive Katherine to the Oakland Dialysis Unit on Thursday? A rota of 4 drivers is forming.

Katherine has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to the Oakland Dialysis Unit alone. After an eyesight problem, Katherine 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 19 km each way.
Katherine 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.
