Kingsley needs a lift to Enugu General Hospital - can you help one day a week?

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

Kingsley has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Enugu General Hospital alone. After an eyesight problem, Kingsley 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. Kingsley 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
