Drivers being sought across Kerry to transport cancer patients

Drivers are being sought across Kerry to transport cancer patients.

Transport is needed to take cancer patients to chemotherapy appointments at University Hospital Kerry and hospitals in Cork and Limerick.

The service, which is managed by the Irish Cancer Society, is usually one-to-one, where the patient is collected at their own door, taken for treatment, and brought back again.

Anne Griffin from Glenbeigh has been driving with the Irish Cancer Society since 2012, during which time she has transported over 50 cancer patients to chemotherapy appointments.

She says each patient has their own story to tell.
