Join our friending team of volunteer drivers and take up to 3 people at a time to and from our Community Hub in Popley.
Our team of driving volunteers will be a friendly, welcoming face to our customers, making them feel comfortable and helping them access the Community Hub. Every volunteer will play a key role in connecting people in the local community, individuals who otherwise couldn't make their own way.
The Community Hub is open 1st and 3rd Thursdays in the month and is a vital link, giving the older members of the local community an opportunity to meet others. Facilitating this connection helps reduce loneliness and social isolation and the role is a key part of the success of the Community Hub.
What will I be doing?
As a Thursday Driver, you will be:
• Using your own car
• Picking up the customers from their home and drop off to the Community Hub, returning them home at the end of the session.
• A friendly face, providing a warm welcome to our customers.
• Offering a supportive arm if needed.
• Assisting them to enter and exit your car.
Commitment:
Thursday Car Drivers start at 9:45am and finish at 3:15pm.
The Community Hub runs on the 1st and 3rd Thursday of every month and request a minimum commitment of once a month.
