Hosting wanted: Sophie travelling with Josiah to Nottingham for treatment
A family from a town in the north needs lodging in Nottingham while a child is treated.
🇬🇧 Nottingham, England, United Kingdom198 views
My son Josiah has been accepted for treatment at the Nottingham Cancer Centre in Nottingham, starting on Saturday in October. We live 358 km away in a town in the north, and hotel costs would use up what we have set aside for the treatment itself.
We're looking for a room, granny flat or short-term rental within about 30 minutes of the hospital, for 4 weeks. Two of us would stay: Josiah and me. We can contribute $100 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Josiah will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

- 3–6 weeks
- format
- In person in Nottingham

Best of luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless
Keep going. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.
Wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 27 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care
Thinking of you and your family, Sophie. Your post was clear and honest. I'll check back for the next update. All the best
Thanks for sharing this. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like!
