We are looking for a volunteer who can drive and accompany a person we support living in Kingswood to get out and about, ideally once a week.
Can you help?
The person we support is a man in his 70s who likes to be accompanied going to charity / second hand shops, car boot sales and to visit friends. 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. You must have a full manual driving licence. The service has their own car that you will be able to use each time you volunteer. Activity expenses will be discussed prior to starting in the role with the individual and the service.
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.
