Rides to dialysis three times a week for Emery in Leicester
A rota of drivers to the Leicester Dialysis Unit would keep Emery on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.
🇬🇧 Leicester, England, United Kingdom657 views
Emery has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Leicester Dialysis Unit alone. After a minor stroke, Emery 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 10 km each way.
Emery 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.
Glad we found this place.
