Yui needs a lift to Kawasaki General Hospital - can you help one day a week?

Could you drive Yui to Kawasaki General Hospital on Saturday? A rota of 4 drivers is forming.

Yui has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Kawasaki General Hospital alone. After an eyesight problem, Yui 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 33 km each way. Yui 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. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
