Eleanor needs a lift to the Lafayette Dialysis Unit - can you help one day a week?
Eleanor needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Eleanor has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to the Lafayette Dialysis Unit alone. After a minor stroke, Eleanor 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 10 km each way.
Eleanor 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.
Thank you so much.
