	D-2136    Cyprus - Limassol Minibus for Cancer Association $42,279 This 15 seat minibus would collect sufferers from the out-lying villages around Limassol and bring them to treatment from the association and also take people to Nicosia for chemotherapy each day (only available centre on the island). The Cancer Patients association currently has a very old mini bus which acts as a lifeline for sufferers and their families. It meets this need but it is now regularly breaking down and so is causing distress when it doesn't appear. Collecting people from the villages around Limassol is a real need as public transport to and from the village communities is so limited in Cyprus.
