Declan needs a lift to Cork General Hospital - can you help one day a week?

Could you drive Declan to Cork General Hospital on Sunday? A rota of 6 drivers is forming.

Declan has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to Cork General Hospital alone. After a foot amputation, Declan 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 28 km each way. Declan 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

      Good luck, Nuala. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Niter贸i donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Niter贸i!

        Thinking of you and your family, Nuala. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Cork.
