Volunteer drivers wanted: Victoria's dialysis appointments
Victoria needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.
🇬🇧 Bristol, England, United Kingdom1,062 views
Victoria has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Bristol Regional Medical Center alone. After surgery on their hand, Victoria 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 24 km each way.
Victoria 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

hang in there, Rebecca. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too
