Andreas needs a lift to the Augsburg Kidney Centre - can you help one day a week?

A rota of drivers to the Augsburg Kidney Centre would keep Andreas on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Andreas has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to the Augsburg Kidney Centre alone. After an eyesight problem, Andreas 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 20 km each way. Andreas 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.
