Our Fareham & Gosport Voluntary Car Service is entirely run by volunteers. Our mission is to enable vulnerable / elderly members of our community to get to appointments conveniently and economically when public transport options are not viable. We need additional Coordinators to join our team in both Fareham and in Gosport:
- Where and when you perform the role is negotiable – could be at home or office, at times during the day/week that work for you.
- We would like multiple volunteers to work as a team so that the service will be resilient and yet not over-burden anyone.
- It involves talking to our clients and taking bookings / dealing with enquiries, liaising with our drivers, and doing the admin involved in arranging transport to medical and social appointments.
Full training and
support will be available.
