Rides to dialysis three times a week for Luke in Newcastle
Could you drive Luke to the Newcastle Dialysis Unit on Thursday? A rota of 4 drivers is forming.

Luke has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to the Newcastle Dialysis Unit alone. After an eyesight problem, Luke 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 20 km each way.
Luke 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.
