Could you drive Mia to the Leeds Kidney Centre on Monday? A rota of 6 drivers is forming.

Mia has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Leeds Kidney Centre alone. After surgery on their hand, Mia 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 23 km each way. Mia 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
