Local charity providing support to Hertfordshire residents
Are you a sociable and friendly person? Do you enjoy meeting and helping people? Why not become one of our Transport Escorts assisting our members?
About the role
Volunteers are needed to escort elderly and vulnerable people on a minibus from their homes to their Day Care Centre, and back home again.
The bus collects the members in the morning, and then takes them home in the afternoon.
What would be involved?
- Assisting the members to get on and off the minibus for collection and drop offs on Club days
- Ensure the wellbeing of the clients during the journey to enable them to arrive safety
- Ensuring members are seated securely and using appropriate seat belts at all times
This vital role means that isolated vulnerable elderly people can access a local Day Care Centre, take advantage of the services they provide, have a hot meal and a chat (perhaps the only time they can leave their home each week).
This is a rewarding, enjoyable role for a patient, chatty person.
All volunteers must have lived in the UK for more than 3 years, be over the age of 18 and are recruited subject to references and a clear enhanced DBS. Training will be provided.
You must sign in to apply for this position.
