Do you drive? Do you have a caring personality? Would you like to help individuals of all ages who cannot use other forms of transport and who rely on our voluntary car service to access facilities?
If you are a person who is responsible and can operate independently, we would like to hear from you!
Using their own cars, our volunteer car drivers take people to and from medical and hospital appointments.
