Rides to dialysis three times a week for Isaiah in Birmingham
A rota of drivers to the Birmingham Kidney Centre would keep Isaiah on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Isaiah has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Birmingham Kidney Centre alone. After a foot amputation, Isaiah 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 19 km each way.
Isaiah 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 for reading my story.
