About the Role

A volunteer driver is someone who helps older people in the community to access various activities and services, such as social clubs, exercise classes, health appointments, and shopping trips. A volunteer driver also provides friendly conversation and companionship to the older person during the journey.

What are the benefits of becoming a volunteer?

By becoming a volunteer driver, you can make a positive difference in the lives of older people who may be feeling lonely or isolated. You can also enrich your own life with new experiences and friendships. You will also gain valuable skills and knowledge that can enhance your personal and professional development.

How much time do I need to commit as a volunteer?

Generally, we ask for a minimum of one hour per week for at least six months.

We have opportunities Mondays - Thursdays.

What kind of support will I receive as a volunteer?

You will receive ongoing support and guidance from a local coordinator who will monitor your progress. You will also have access to online resources, training opportunities, and peer support from other volunteers. Travel expenses will be paid.
