Geetha needs a lift to Kolkata General Hospital - can you help one day a week?

A rota of drivers to Kolkata General Hospital would keep Geetha on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Geetha has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to Kolkata General Hospital alone. After surgery on their hand, Geetha 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 34 km each way. Geetha 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • Wishing Geetha a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too

    • Thinking of you. Get well soon. We're a small family in Riyadh but we're thinking of you.

      • wishing you peace, Haritha. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope August is when things finally get easier.

          So sorry you're going through this. Hope the doctors have good news. Wish I lived closer to Bristol so I could bring a meal.

          • Thanks for sharing this. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Kolkata.
