Dinesh needs a lift to Jaffna General Hospital - can you help one day a week?

Dinesh needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Dinesh has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Jaffna General Hospital alone. After an eyesight problem, Dinesh 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 8 km each way. Dinesh 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.
