Cancer transport Cancer Council NSW’s Transport to Treatment (T2T) is made up of a volunteer driving force. Many of those drivers were over 60, and T2T had to stand down 91 per cent of their drivers as COVID-19 struck. Putting a call out across the Northern Rivers for drivers that are not in a risk category they have been able to train 19 new drivers, and keep their service going. ‘Cancer never stops, not even for a global pandemic. We needed drivers desperately, or put simply; some cancer patients would not be able to access their life-saving treatment,’ said Northern NSW Community Lead, Caitlyn Feldmann. ‘We still have a need for three to five drivers in Ballina/Lismore, and five drivers in Tamworth, so if you’re in
these areas, under the age of 60 and have some spare time you’d like to spend helping people in need, please reach out to your local Cancer Council office.’ If you would like to volunteer for, or donate to, Cancer Council NSW go to their website: cancercouncil.com.au.
