We are looking for a volunteer who can drive and accompany a person we support in one of our residential services in Filton on day trips, ideally once a month.
Can you help?
The person we support is a wheelchair user and enjoys trips out. He loves animals, the seaside, meals out and in general likes drives in the car. You will have the opportunity to get to know him first with the support staff until you feel confident enough to go out with him on your own.
Travel expenses are covered for each volunteering shift and activity expenses will be discussed with the individual and their family. You must have a full manual driving licence. The individual has their own car that you will use for the trips out.
For all our volunteer roles a DBS check will be carried out and we will request two references. All volunteers will need to complete online volunteer training in preparation for your role. You will be supported by both the volunteer team and a designated member of staff in the service too.
You can apply for this role several ways :
- Apply online – please note this is a general application form, please specify the role you are applying for.
- Fill out a word application form (standard or easy read) - please email us for a copy of this.
- Give us a ring and we can take down your details.
